URGENT:: Help a disabled Black college student

“Each thing exists to nourish all others, and, in return, to be nourished itself.” – The Yoga of Herbs

                Hi, I’m Reaper, a 22 year old college student at the illustrious A&T State University, from Raleigh, NC. I love plants and believe in miracles, which is why I’m creating this fundraiser. My chronic physical and mental illnesses, among them Bipolar disorder, Avoidant-Resistant Food Intake disorder, and uterine fibroids, impair my functionality and make it difficult to work most jobs—and I’ve been unjustly fired a week ago. I have been housing with my abusive ex-boyfriend for 2 years in an effort to escape an abusive family situation and get my English degree. I am currently living alone (with my plants and my beautiful kitty Bela) in our apartment that he abandoned me in, hoping that upon eviction I’d have to humbly crawl back to him for my own survival. The lease on this place is over in less than one month, and the building is being sold so there’s no chance of me re-applying here. I have a very limited time to secure safe housing for myself and continue spreading joy and light. I found the perfect apartment, but if I don’t snatch it up soon, I will have to go back to my family or my ex-boyfriend to avoid homelessness. I’ve already made countless sacrifices to build a better, healthier, safer life for myself, and it would destroy me if those sacrifices were made in vain.


                I do tarot readings mainly focusing on healing your emotional wounds, dealing with depression and suicidality, etc. I got into tarot as a way to cope with my mental illnesses being neglected by family, friends, and medical professionals. I am dedicated to healing myself and helping others do the same. I am eternally grateful that I have been able to transmute my pain into healing and use the wisdom I’ve gained from my experiences with mental illness to help others. I’ve been of great use to many on their journeys by providing emotional support in a spiritual way. I have been able to do so much with so little, so I can only imagine how much I’d be able to do if I was safe. The standard price for a tarot reading is $11.11. Usually I do donation-based readings faithfully, but I don’t have the means to do so now. But you can help me get to a place where I can offer them again. If you’re interested, please contact me. You can also subscribe for monthly love letters from me at www.patreon.com/reapersreadings with your choice of donating $2, $5, $10, or $20 a month with associated benefits specific to each tier. We have a beautiful little community growing and healing together, and I’d love to have you as part of it.

                I am asking for $6,500 to take care of the security deposit, moving costs, a couple month’s rent, and money for groceries. I am seeking and applying for new jobs every day, but I need to secure this apartment! If you can only donate $1, it will be much appreciated. Not a penny will go to waste. I don’t deserve abuse. I deserve to feel safe every day and get my degree. I don’t deserve abuse! Help me build my new life. Help me secure my new home. If you don’t feel comfortable donating here, I’m also accepting donations through my cash app $kutthroatkitty. If you aren’t able to donate, please share my fundraiser! I need a miracle, and I know it’s coming.

                Thank you for reading my story.


::UPDATE::
I'm in my new apartment now, thanks to you all. It has been very trying and tumultuous. I work one minimum wage job and it is very taxing to my mental health, but it isn't impossible. It isn't a livable wage and doesn't provide me with much and it also triggers manic episodes. It isn't feasible to increase my hours to make a livable wage nor is it feasible to get a second job. School has started back up again and I'm in no position to purchase my own textbooks. I'm just very nervous about sustaining and maintaining, which this fund is going to help me out with. I am endlessly grateful that I didn't have to go back to my family, who are not in their right minds and treat me as though I don't deserve an opportunity for happiness, only dealing with whatever they put out with a smile. I'm incredibly grateful for this opportunity, but I'm equally exhausted and overwhelmed. It would make my life so much easier if I were to reach my goal! I have faith because I've seen plenty of others reach theirs, but it is very disheartening that I have to continue to beg for money for my survival. Please help me by sharing my campaign with those who you think would take an interest in helping me out. Thank you so much for your support.
