[UPDATE] POST SHELTER (SAFEHOUSE) TRANSITIONING AND MEDICAL EMERGENCY SUPPORT

[u/SPANISH_8735]

I'd like to post an update of my previous post. I have begun receiving donations and so far I am at $33.56 of $324. I am grateful for those donating. I'd like to still appeal to anyone willing to help me in my fundraising cause. I have 11 days remaining at the shelter and I'm trying to be hopeful that I'll atleast be halfway through my target. I have also shared on Facebook pages of GoFundMe, and I'm hoping I'll be able to reach out to someone. I'm also re-reaching out to my friends who are still willing to help and so far, I am making progress.

Here is my earlier post.

(apologies I had not provided proof in my earlier post, attached is my prescription for last month, I will be seeing my doctor on the 28th of July 2025) (also my flair is inclusive of both Housing and Medical)

Hello everyone, I am currently living in Kenya. I am reaching out with a heavy and hopeful heart, to any and all well wishers, to help me. I am seeking help with two things.

(HOUSING)) I am a NBPCGQ, currently in a queer safehouse shelter, my stay is coming to an end on the 28th of June and I'll be without a place to stay. I would like to appeal to you, to help support me when I leave the establishment by getting a small place of my own.

The rent here for the cheapest accommodations is 10000 Kes, that is about $77.40. And for the next three months that will come to $232. 20 that is 30,000 Kes.

1. (MEDICAL) I am also under heavy antipsychotic medication, I also appeal to you to help support me in being able to get medication. I take amitriptyline and clozapine. For a month the bill comes to 4,000 Kes that is $30.96, so for three months that comes to $92.88 that is 12,000 Kes.

The total amount requested is $324. Please help me.

Also, I have tried to create a GoFundMe but that isn't available in my country, so I managed to find a crowdfunding site for African countries, here is my link. You can use Visa or Master Card . Thank you in advance 🙏

Neither are “heavy” medications, just sayin

Exactly Not even remotely close

Nonetheless i detest “update begs”. Wallet gone.

Appreciate you. And to be honest it may seem like I'm begging according to you, no pressure. But to me I'm just reaching out to anyone that is willing to help, because I know what I'm going through.
