I have spent a life time trying to help get people out of homelessness. Many times I have taken homeless people in, given them a home, money for education (if they want to go that route) or other training, and all the support and resources they could need to get on their feet.
My expiuernce is always the same, if you just given them resources without conditions on it without fail they will just waste the resources and do little if anything to get out of the situation. However when reasonable conditions are put on the support, conditions which require the person to become more marketable and skilled, then there is a fairly decent successrate.
My position is simple, I will not enable poor people to keep repeating the same bad habits and perpetuate the problem, even making it worse. If I help someone I make sure I **actually** help and not make things worse through enablement.
Urgent #MutualAidRequest
$0/$100 needed today.
Two recently rehoused disabled autistic trans people w/ chronic pain & cPTSD w/ two cats need donations to help us while we get back on our feet.
My QPP Luke and I are in need of donations today to help us be able to get some personal care products as well as general cleaning products and other necessities that we desperately need. One immediate need is both of us need to replace our toothbrushes ASAP. We are also going to be in need of help with raising next months rent ($1100) while get settled in and back on our feet after being homeless together for 4 months. Aiming to raise at least $100 to deal with immediate needs today.
Besides direct donations, you can also help by checking out Luke's ko-fi where they sell crochet items & digital art commissions, as well as a redbubble with stickers. I also have music available to purchase on my bandcamp. Links to both are in my linktree. There is also an Amazon Wishlist with things that we need for our new home.
Please boost & donate if you can! Thank you!
