Cairo’s Recovery Fund: Rent Due July 1st

~Scroll down for discounted gifts with your donation~

Cairo just underwent 3 back-to-back invasive surgeries: a wrist surgery (one year recovery), a hystorectomy (2 month recovery), and – the most invasive (and exciting) of them all – TOP SURGERY! You can imagine they have been fighting years to get this, and it came at a difficult time with the other surgeries.

All of these surgieries require Cairo to put down work for at least 2 months in order to heal properly. Cairo is a freelance artist and producer. Their work requires physical health, and as a contractor, they get no access to disability or paid leave.

Cairo needs your support to recover. My best friend is kind and intentional, tender and reliable, and one of the coolest and creative guys in all of Brooklyn and beyond. They go out of their way to consistently show up for community, and it’s time we show up for Cairo.

Every donation goes directly to Cairo for rent, food, utilities, and medical bills during their healing. This is urgent! Cairo must make rent on July 1st!

Please click donate and offer any amount, or buy a discounted package and 100% of the money goes towards Cairo’s recovery. Note: you do not need to buy a gift to donate! Even $1 helps!

To purchase a package, make a donation then email [email redacted] with your receipt and gift choice (for you or someone else)!

Tranding Fundraisers

I’ve created this fundraiser on behalf of my dear friends, Sarah and James, who are enduring every parent’s worst nightmare — the loss of their beloved son, Leo.

We’re heartbroken to share that our dear friend Alex passed away far too soon. His light, his laughter, his incredible spirit — they touched so many, and his absence is deeply felt.

Hi everyone — Angela here, writing on behalf of Matthew (for now). On December 6th, completely out of the blue, Matthew suffered a severe stroke.
