Asking for boosts again

Sharing this again because we still haven't reached our goal, and I might end up increasing that a bit. I am unable to work and go to school simultaneously, due to my chronic pain/illness, it's just too hard on my body. That means I will have no income over the summer, and will have to figure out selling my jewelry. I want to be able to save some of the funds for her celebration of life, and not have it all end up going to bills.

Where we're at: cremation was fully covered, which was $1350. The most important thing! Right now any extra has gone to bills, and I am working to save as much as possible. It's hard to plan for a celebration when I am not sure what I am working with money wise. Dying is so expensive.

If you're local to Portland and would like to buy some of my handmade whimsigoth jewelry let me know, and that is another way you can help! I'll get some pictures up soon.

I still appreciate everyone that has helped so far in any way, it means so much to me! 💗

_The Evening Post_, 13 March 1925:
"POPPY DAY" FLOWERS
LOCAL MANUFACTURE URGED
A new avenue of employment for returned disabled soldiers, that of manufacturing the paper #poppies, which are at present imported from France and sold on “Poppy Day,” was touched upon at a meeting of the Wellington Returned Soldiers’ Association last night. Mr. Harrison, general secretary of the New Zealand R.S.A., said that “Poppy Day” was first inaugurated with the idea of making returned soldier organisations practically self-supporting. If the flowers could be manufactured in New Zealand, it would mean that from fourteen to twenty disabled men could be permanently employed. The contract with the French people for the supply of the poppies expired after the next "Poppy Day"… Until two years ago the British Legion obtained its poppies from France, but since then had made its own by the employment of disabled men.… Australia, until last year, got its flowers from France, but since then had made its own.
The proposal was carried unanimously, and will be forwarded as a remit to the Wellington Metropolitan Returned Soldiers’ Association’s Conference at Palmerston North.

One of my close friends is fully disabled while also trying to maintain the house they share with their equally disabled mother.

They have greedy, conservative, meddling relatives who do everything but help... Including calling social services in an attempt to steal the property out from under them. They almost succeeded last week.

As a result, they had to drop a lot of funds to stay where they are and need help recovering from the blow to put food on the table.

Canada has one of the best women's rugby teams in the world. Why they're asking for your money
The Canadian women's rugby team is heading to the 2025 Rugby World Cup with the goal of unseating England to become the best team in the world. But in order to achieve that goal, they say they need the financial support of Canadians.

#DogsOfMastodon #DogTreats #Fundraising

All last week my wife and I were busy making dog treats! Several kinds, plus dried apples, banana and sweet potatoes.

Today she attended a big VOAG event at a local high school, where she sold about 75% of them, plus dog toys and blankets.

Total raised for the Hands Helping Paws Project? $560.00 to help families who can't afford vet bills or pet food.
