Hello Guys,
I did ship this to modmail a pair days in the past however did not get a response and sadly that is a particularly time delicate state of affairs so I figured I needed to simply publish it. I apologize if this is not the kind of content material you need to see. I am simply at a loss for the place to show for assist. Please take a look at the Giveth venture I created.
Some fast background- my mom and grandparents on her aspect are in a horrible state of affairs proper now, caught within the besieged metropolis of Mariupol (in Ukraine).
I’ve been making an attempt to lift funds in any manner that I presumably can however I simply haven’t had a lot luck. I sadly don’t have many “IRL” associates as I’m an internet scholar balancing gig work. The entire cash I make, aside from absolutely the naked minimal that I must survive, I’ve been sending to my household as quickly as I get it – nonetheless it simply isn’t sufficient.
For readability sake I’m a US citizen, I don’t intend to painting myself as personally being in Ukraine and firsthand witnessing the horrors unfolding alongside my household there.
In a manner I want I used to be there although as a result of I simply really feel so helpless right here. I fear for his or her lives actually each minute of each hour of daily. They’ve been caught of their condominium in Mariupol for the reason that starting of the battle and society collapses round them additional on a regular basis. The whole metropolis is a hellscape. My grandfather is operating dangerously low on his lifesaving medication and so they don’t have anyplace close to sufficient cash to purchase secure passage out of the town and get the provides and shelter they want.
At first I created a paypal fundraiser as I noticed some folks had luck with that nonetheless it was buried beneath 1000’s of others. I don’t actually have anybody in particular person to share the hyperlink with so I need to depend on sort people prepared to donate something seeing it on their very own. Sadly nobody ever even noticed it. At one level I desperately posted it with a abstract of the state of affairs within the r/Ukraine subreddit as a result of I didn’t know what else to do however they’re a bit jaded from scammers it appears (which is despicable and unfathomable to me proper now that some folks might be so callous and grasping).
From there I requested for recommendation in a discord for a crypto venture the place I’ve been concerned locally for awhile (Furucombo) and somebody there advised Giveth. I had a tiny little bit of hope and instantly made an account/arrange a fundraiser however sadly it looks like I am coping with the identical downside the place it’s buried beneath a number of different tasks.
I need to ask this favor of you all now… when you’ve got something you would presumably give it might actually imply the world to me. The venture has already been authorised/verified on Giveth but when there may be every other proof you want please let me know and that i’ll do my greatest to get no matter I can to you ASAP.
Right here is the hyperlink to the fundraiser on Giveth once more.
