Yana, Patron Fella of Maple Syrup 🍁

Goal: get treatment and back to work to help Ukraine and its people in a month. This can be done. It will require aggressive self-care and advocating for myself with doctors, but it can be done. My goal is $4k, so I’m being conservative. gofund.me/12d8f7a6c

Good news! I might become less annoying. To y’all, not to russia (never that).
Turns out an organization I’ve been part of for 12? 13? years now has a fund for its volunteers that are struggling with unexpected life situations. I’ve submitted an inquiry to see if they can help with medical debt and upcoming tests and treatments.

Not having a gfm would be wonderful. I could focus on Azov’s holiday wishlist (which I’m somehow going to have to manage myself, since the IRS is stricter than a ballet teacher who also teaches at a Catholic school)

Update on this for full transparency:
I had problems connecting my bank account so I added a “beneficiary” I trust, AM, to e-transfer the funds to me. If you donated, you should get a follow-up email explaining this. This platform is absolute garbage for fuиďřαιsing. It took AM over 3 days to get his bank account to work with gfm.

My mental health is in the shitter today so I won’t be online much.
Please be kind and don’t make me regret opening this app again later 😒

I’ve been slacking on @SlavaUkrainiOrg’s social media. We have a new fundraiser for a vehicle, the recipient will be decided soon. Right now we’re just grateful to have a motivated driver who is alive today because of humanitarian aid. Love to see people giving back ❤️
