fund for survivor support work
FUND FOR SURVIVOR SUPPORT WORK
Philly's Pissed believes in supporting survivors of sexual assault and domestic violence in a way that provides options and allows the survivor to make their own decisions. We think it is important for survivors to have choices that do not rely on cops, government or big nonprofits. Who can offer better support to survivors than people and communities close to them?
We have a little bit of money to support other people doing this work in their own communities. We are very excited about work that creates alternatives to the police and criminal justice system, work that supports survivors who are people of color and/or trans, work that is being done in rural areas and work that is about sustainability and long-term change.
If this is you, please write to phillyspissedproposal@gmail.com or to PP c/o Timothy, 921 S 50th Street, Philadelphia PA 19143. Tell us a little bit about who you are, what you do and the money needs of the work you are doing. We will be able to give several groups money ranging from $100-$500 each. You do not need to have any kind of 501(c)3 or nonprofit status. Deadline is May 1st; please feel free to write us if you have questions or need more info.

zine reviews
zine reviews:
Firehazard #2 Katrina 259 Williams St. Prov. RI 02906
Punk rock, anarchy, food, kombucha, gardens, rage, friends, mental health, healing, books, bikes, trees, crushes, avacados, pizza, accordians, tea.
This zine starts out with a youth liberation manifesto and moves through a little bit of everything: receipes and stories and lists like "50 things I do when I feel like shit about being sexually assaulted". It's got really great drawings and feels like being let in. She says "a lot of times I let other people's problems surpass mine - maybe it's ok sometimes to stay home, sit in bed, drink tea..." and that's what it feels like. I want to stay in bed and put my desk on my lap and write a sweet zine like this too.
It's Not the End of the World! building a life with limp wrists: a zine about carpel tunnel, endonitis and how to keep your job from ruining your life Ocean Capewell POB 40144 Pittsburgh PA 15201
includes ips for specific jobs, like bike pizza delivery, dishwashing, construction, etc.

please help
A good friend of mine is in the hospital with extensive injurys, from what I think was a hate crime. She is a transgender woman. She's going to be in the hospital for awhile, and desperately needs financial help. her hospital bills are covered, but we need to keep paying her rent so she won't loose her housing for when she gets out, and so she can set up ongoing care for after she gets out of the hospital. If you can, please donate. thank you.
you can donate through pay pal at temergencyfund@yahoo.com. or send a check to me Cindy Crabb pob 29 Athens OH, 45701, and I'll send it to her caretaker.
