Good morning everyone, and welcome to Radio Free Monday!

Ways to Give:

[livejournal.com profile] nancylebov linked Siderea, a therapist, programmer, and writer who needs to make a little side money and free up some energy for writing; she's started a Patreon where people can support her posts. You can read more and help out here.

Christian is entering Endure 4 Kindness 2014, raising money to support Random Acts, and as his endurance mission is making friendship bracelets all day on October 18th. Donations go to a good cause and might net you a friendship bracelet! You can read more and support the campaign here.

[tumblr.com profile] dontbearuiner linked to Michael, an Austin artist who makes cigar box guitars and ukeleles, often with a geeky twist. He's trying to get his business in it off the ground; you can check out his work and support his store here. They're looking for a final push since the fundraiser ends on Friday.

Grev linked to a video, "Home", about life in Jerusalem for Israeli and Palestinian youth, and how the YMCA Jerusalem Youth Chorus has created a home there. I'm gonna admit I haven't viewed the video yet, but it sounds really interesting and I'm hoping to soon. You can view it for yourself here and support their work here.

[tumblr.com profile] levynite's city, Kota Kinabalu in Malaysia, has been badly affected by Typhoon Vong Fong, and the local SPCA has been flooded out. The animals have been rescued, but they need funds to shelter the animals and to rebuild. Their facebook page has donation details, but the money transfers always incur an extra fee, so Levy is doing an informal collection; if you're interested in donating, contact levynite at gmail.com and Levy will send you a paypal request (Paypal got...complicated).


Buy Stuff, Help Out:

[personal profile] in_the_bottle can't make it to the Night Vale live shows on October 21st and November 8th, so she's selling her tickets (at cover price) to shows in London. You can read more at her Dreamwidth, LJ, or Tumblr.


Help for Free:

[tumblr.com profile] knottahooker's coworker has entered her dog into the Publix Paws Photo contest, trying to win gift certificates to Publix groceries, and is rallying for votes. You can have a look at Handsome here (and vote without having to register or log in) as well as scroll through tons of pictures of cute animals.


Housing:

[livejournal.com profile] off_coloratura is still looking for a third roommate in a Rogers Park apartment in Chicago. $750/mo plus utilities; a private room with shared bath, in-unit laundry, and two cats, close to the red line and grocery. You can view pictures and get more information here.


News to Know:

[personal profile] yamx shared the news that Red Bull has lost a class-action suit regarding misleading advertising, and are required to provide $15 in free Red Bull or $10 to anyone who fills out a claim form that they purchased Red Bull in the past twelve years. No proof of purchase is required; you can read more and find links to the claim forms here.


And this has been Radio Free Monday! Thank you for your time. You can post items for my attention at the Radio Free Monday submissions form or via email at copperbadge at gmail dot com. If you're not sure how to proceed, here is a little more about what I do and how you can help (or ask for help!).
