Alright so my friend's place burned to the ground, literally. The fire started in the flat above and spread. Everything is gone. I care about this person a lot and it's incredibly lucky that nobody was killed.

Please support in any way you can. They're very good people, I obviously wouldn't ask otherwise. This person has been involved in projects I've been involved with for almost a decade now.

I can probably get alternative options if desired.

EDIT: I should add that they're not expecting to get a new place for "up to 19months" according to insurance. Literally anything big or small is incredibly useful, this is an entire family.

$600 is more than I expected from here, genuinely really appreciated. It will absolutely help and be put to good use.

1. Sending censored donation receipts to the moderator team is based.
1. Moderator Pinning Rules:
a. Moderators are strictly prohibited from promoting/endorsing/pinning individual mutual aid requests (especially those of their own) as this creates unfair post visibility and could therefore benefit more from that than the standard user.

b. Moderators are allowed to pin and crosspost to !main donation requests for large scope issues such as natural disaster relief funds and bail funds (Example) along with other crowd or moderator compiled informational resources pertaining to donating or volunteering (Example) so long as the utmost due diligence is done prior to endorsement, especially in the case of directing people to donate to non-profit organizations.

c. Financial documents of non-profit organizations available to the public must be heavily scrutinized before moderator endorsement and links to those must also be included in the endorsement post to help the community make their own decision as to whether or not they should donate.
