Good morning everyone, and welcome to Radio Free Monday!

Ways To Give:

Jay was recently diagnosed with lupus and fibromyalgia, and is struggling to cover medical bills for her diagnosis and for ongoing attempts at treatment. You can read more and help out with her medical bills here. (Jay, you gave me your usernames but I wasn't sure if I should use them -- let me know and I can re-run this next week if necessary.)

editrx is still fundraising for herself and her store, Starcat Books, with 13 days left to go on the fundraiser. The money goes to support the store, as well as personal expenses including heating fuel to get through this brutal winter. You can read more here and help support Editrx and Starcat Books here.

feralletters linked to a fundraiser for their partner, who has chronic pain and depression, and is unable to cover a recent hospital bill without aid or taking on more hours at their job, which is difficult for them. You can read more and help out here.

actuallyclintbarton linked to the Craftypodes, Kelly and David, a disabled couple who are handy-crafty and trying to make some extra cash from their crafts, patterns, and tutorials. You can check out their site here, their tumblr at craftypodes, or support them through their Patreon here.

Anon linked to curiouscat42, a fannish costumer and custom corset maker who is struggling to replace the family van that was totaled on Valentine's Day. Without the van, she and her husband can't haul her corsets and costumes to conventions to sell. You can read more and help out here, or check out her shop with fabric, ribbon, and clothing available here.

stillwaterseas linked to a Kiva loan for her partner, who is in his third year as a small farmer producing pork and veggies in the Northwest and needs help affording extra labor this spring. You can read more and support his Kiva here; because it is a Kiva fundraiser, you will eventually get your money back on the loan.

noxelementalist linked to Mary Joyce Caballes, who will be backpacking through the Philippines in order to make a documentary about the country's history and culture. You can read more about the Inang Bayan Project and support Mary here.

ereshai linked to the Lemar Nyonnie Foundation, which is looking for donations of children's books or money to support their mission of library-building for underprivileged children in Liberia. You can read more and help them out here. (I linked to the About page; the front page has autoplay music.)
