No, itās not. This is a real, vetted campaign for a family in urgent need. I know the tags and asks might be annoying to some, and others may see this as spam. Some are even triggered by the cause itself or by my friendās name. Iāve also received plenty of negative comments and messages.
But none of that will stop me. Tumblr is a way to reach people, and I will keep trying.
āWhy multiple accounts?ā
Tumblr has strict limitations on posts, asks, and replies. If one account isnāt enough, Iāll create ten. If Tumblr isnāt enough, Iāll go to other platforms too. And if it takes 1,000 accounts to help my friend, so be it.
āStill think itās spam?ā
No donations go to a PayPal account, where verification could be unclear, the total amount isnāt public or known, and the progress of total donations is hidden.
This campaign is hosted on GoFundMe, one of the most trusted fundraising platforms in the world, where:
- Personal identity must be verified
- A matching personal bank account is required
- The use of funds must be clarified
- Donations are protected
Yet you still think this is spam? Thatās up to you. But Iām not stopping.
āI donāt know you, why should I care?ā
You may not know me, but do you really need to know someone personally to lend a helping hand? When people are in crisis, kindness shouldnāt come with conditions.
āWhy not restrict replies?ā
I could easily restrict replies, but I wonāt. Because I want transparency, even if it means dealing with negativity. This is real, and I stand by it.
Apologies if the tags and asks are annoying. I know they can be, but Iām just trying to reach more people. You can always ignore me, but if this message finds someone willing to help, then itās worth it. ā¤ļø
