Sexual Assault Survivor Needs a New Bed

Donation protected
I’ve started this GoFundMe to help put a disabled queer in the position to wake up on the right side of the bed for the first time in a very long time.

My friend, whom I’ll call Aiden, regularly gives their time, energy, and resources to support the community but rarely thinks to ask for help for themselves. They support the work of the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, provide essential services to the trans community, and are actively involved in anti-racism work. It’s not easy to ask for help, especially during such challenging times, and it's not something I do lightly.

Due to the nature of Aiden’s situation, I will not go into detail beyond saying that it involved extreme violence. The bed they are currently sleeping in is the source of ongoing harm and needs to be replaced as soon as possible. After consulting with their care team of trauma therapists, physical therapists, physicians, and chiropractors, they have determined that the iSense Hybrid Premier mattress and base is the best long-term option for them. To cover the cost of replacing the bed, we need to raise $6,365. I’m willing to personally make up the difference of anything lost in fees, etc., but I can’t make it happen all by myself.

Thank you so much for reposting, working a little magic to make this fundraiser a success, and/or giving generously to help a disabled queer in need. I wouldn’t ask if it wasn’t urgent.
