I need $400 to reach current mini-fundraising goal

Another update – $250 to reach the goal!

UPDATE – now just $300 to go thanks to Amy!

While I still need help with my general Legal and Living Expenses Crowdfund, I have a mini-goal.

Essentially, I need $560 to pay for a mobile video kit and to be Meta verified by Facebook and Instagram.

Mini Goal

Mobile Video Kit

  • Improve videos and draw more traffic to blog to make more sustainable
  • My physical disabilities esp hand tremor are a challenge with just using my phone.
  • Added benefit of using for outdoor cat videos to help those programs
  • The furry thing you put on a microphone to break up the sound of the wind is called a “dead cat” and how can I not need that? #GallowsHumor

Meta Verification for Facebook and Instagram

  • Access to a live person to address problems, I have a lot of problems because of my content
  • Harassers and threats increasing
  • Interviewees have expressed wanting the peace of mind of the blue check when I reach out to them with a cold ask.
  • This is especially true for families of those I memorialize who deserve any comfort possible during a terrible loss.

The total for the mini-goal is $560 and I’ve received $160 so far, so just $400 to go.

How to help

I’m trying to plan for the next phase of my life. The blog is funded out of my pocket, something I won’t be able to afford after the divorce, at least not at first. So everything I can do to enhance its self-sufficiency or sustainability is important. I spend at least $350/month to blog. That’s a huge chunk.

I appreciate your consideration.
