ThreeAfter3’s Fund for Tatjana
Donation protected
Hello! Firstly, thanks for taking the time to check our Gofundme out!
A word from ThreeAfter3 - When we found each other & founded this project, we wanted to create something which worked towards lifting all of us in this industry.
Right now the needs of the players in this community are more perilous than ever before. We’re so heartened seeing brands, bars, & individuals working so hard to make sure no-one gets left behind. It's for this reason we’re starting this GoFundMe for our very own Tatjana, who’s one of the many who remain unsupported by furlough schemes. Things are tight across the board right now- but any little goes a long way, & will be reciprocated in any way we can. To us, Tatjana is family. We just want to make sure our family is OK.
Sappy moment over- We're handing the mic to Tats now...
I’ve put this off as long as I could, but after investigating every angle, I’m here asking for your help.
As many of you know, I’ve been located primarily in the US since January, after returning in October for my mother’s biopsy and subsequent diagnosis with stage 3/4 Hodgkins Lymphoma, in addition to the Chronic Lymphocytic Leukaemia she’s dealt with for 13 years.
The recommended treatment is one of the most aggressive courses of chemotherapy, and I needed to be there as a carer for her. I managed a trip home in February, fitting in rep work and work with ThreeAfter3, as well as being lucky enough to get offered my dream job at FAM bar- to start on my return to the UK in early April. Then the world went into lockdown and all our plans fell apart.
Unfortunately, regardless of prior employment record, this leaves me ineligible for furlough, and in real need of help to keep paying rent, paying bills, and trying not to lean on my already stretched parents.
It's not always easy to ask for help, especially knowing that many are in similar, & often worse, situations. Knowing this, & how many are needing to reach out for help right now, I am fundraising for myself here, but working to help as well by fundraising for The Drinks Trust & walking the Reyka Runners Hospo Half Marathon on May 17th.
In thanks for donations I will happily improvise home cocktails for you; I'll be your virtual bartender; I’ll draw you a picture; read you a bedtime story or perform a monologue; or be your actual home bartender (when that’s allowed again); I’ll explain how to make Austrian Apricot dumplings! Or any number of other things. I want to help make your life better in thanks for your support.
I’m still in Connecticut, still taking care of my mom (& dad), and I miss you all, and hope you are all OK and taking care of yourselves. If you can give, it would mean the world, if you can’t but you can share, that would mean the world as well.
Either way, if you ever need a chat, you know where to find me: I’m always here for you.
