Each week, The FADER rounds up a small selection of calls for donations from causes furthering the goals of equality and social justice, with a focus on areas that are overlooked in modern media coverage. If you have any comments or suggestions for the roundup, contact us on Twitter or Instagram.
"Yesterday, our beautiful friend Clare's vivacious boy Vincent had an awful accident and fell while bushwalking. He was airlifted to Randwick Children's Hospital where he is being treated. We want to offer Clare and Greg access to accommodation nearby while Vincent is in hospital without having to worry about the cost." — Fundraiser organizer
"After her feeding tube punctured her intestine and she had to undergo surgery, her heart stopped and she nearly died. The only option left for Liv to be able to survive anything is to undergo another surgery and be treated with medication. She needs this surgery to survive. Please donate and share this fundraiser widely - you are helping save a young woman’s life." — Fundraiser organizer
" "Hi everyone. I am a 17-year-old lesbian in an extremely abusive Muslim household [in a middle eastern country] where I have recently been outed. I am in grave danger as I faced their physical and verbal abuse on a daily basis, even before they knew I was a lesbian. Now that I have been outed, I fear for my life and I cannot stay in this environment any longer."
"Adam was only 20 years old and was the last child living with our mother. He was and always will be her baby. She is completely devastated & My husband and I are starting this go fund me to help ease some of the burden on her shoulders, even if it’s only a little bit." — Darcy
"First of all, I'm sorry if I'm asking for too much but my life right now is a
shattered and a complete mess. My mom was the only one in support of my decision but passed on from covid-19 in August and life has hit me so hard ever since. I'm soliciting for the help of LGBTQ community to assist me with my medical transition and my survival also. . I've been kicked out of the house with my family calling me all sort of names."
"The accident was the straw that broke the camels back for my mental health and led to me dropping out of school and relapsing. Mentally i’m getting so much better but due to the accident i’ve been carless for almost 5 months." — Demi
