Good morning everyone, and welcome to Radio Free Monday!

Ways to Give:

[tumblr.com profile] iamlivingmusic linked to a fundraiser for her cousin, Fergus, who was in an accident while travelling in Romania and needs help to cover medical expenses, support his parents who have come out from NZ to help him, and get home to NZ. You can read more about his accident here and give to help out here.

[personal profile] tangerine42 linked to a fundraiser for her friend Ms. Connor, a 7th grade teacher in Baltimore who is raising money to buy comic books for her students, some of whom read below their grade level but are hesitant to pick up books that look like they're designed for the reading level they're starting at. You can read more and support Ms. Connor here.

Anon linked to [livejournal.com profile] phantisma, who is raising funds after a creditor deducted $3300 from her checking account instead of $330, and is refusing to return the money. The funds will go to rent and bills; you can read more and donate here or shop her ebay and purchase to support the fundraiser here.

[personal profile] maschalismos 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.

[livejournal.com profile] editrx has been struggling a lot lately, and is facing a lot of bills, a lien on her house, and overdue rent on her independent bookstore. She's currently raising $2250 to pay back rent to keep from being evicted; you can read more and help out here. She also has jewelry for sale on Etsy and her bookshop, Star Cat Books, sells through abebooks here.

Holly is raising funds for a dog she rescued, who has had to have extensive vet treatments after rescue, and now needs surgery for a slipped disc in his back. You can read more about Kane and help out here.

[personal profile] siliconshaman is raising money to help fund vet bills for his cat Niccodenous Bannertail, who has hyperthyroidism. He is writing and publishing two stories at his journal, and has a donation button up so people can give through paypal; you can find the stories and button on his Dreamwidth front page.

[tumblr.com profile] selikeinthesea linked to a fundraiser for Chicago French Bulldog Rescue, who are working to rescue Frenchie puppies going to a puppy mill auction in October. You can read more and find a donation link here.

Housing:

[tumblr.com profile] tzikeh is looking for a housemate to move into a condo in Chicago's Uptown neighborhood; it's a large bedroom and private bathroom for $805/mo plus utilities (which for Uptown, and to judge by the photos, is a hell of a deal). You can read more and get in touch here.

Fannish News:

[personal profile] soc_puppet just started MGA Creative, a community dedicated to the creative endeavors of multi-gender attracted people (varioriented people welcome), with prompts to inspire projects every other Monday. You can check the community out at [tumblr.com profile] mga-creative and at [community profile] mga_creative.
