#good cause

One of my best friends, Sock,(I don't wanna post their real name since it's just courtesy of myself) has a bird named Matcha. At the moment, her mother is immature with her spending and honestly a bad pet parent. They have money, but the mother spends it on trips and when Sock begs for things to care for her bird, her mother says it's un needed.

Sock had some jobs, but recently lost them and isn't old enough to get a real one (she used to pet sit for a close family to theirs) nor is she old enough to get a bank account, so her older sister is helping with the gofundme proceeds

Sock recently started a gofundme for Matcha, to get her things like a bird bath or toys, since birds need to be comfortable in order to thrive!!

I'll also put Sock's tiktok here, in case you want to read more about the situation and see it from the first person:

Voting is $1 per vote, donations go to the Humane Society. He's pretty low on the rankings and he could honestly use a self confidence boost. I've no social media to promote him, tis all we have.

Just wondered if you'd respond to this ask, to share a little fundraising event i'm taking part in.

The event to RSVP on Fetlife (you will have to be known to the organisers or have a reference of someone already attending)

It’s time to get the brands we support to turn up for people like you and me. With your help, on an ongoing basis, I’ll be reaching out to brands of your choice challenging them to take certain actions for the benefit of us (you, me, others). 

CHALLENGE 1: FEED THE HUNGRY 🍎

Things are tight for a lot of people right now. Join me and share this initiative so that we can activate the power of the crowd to get brands to help people cover their food bill.

The Challenge: I’d like to get food brands to work with registered charities to provide some families with free groceries or meals for at least a month. I’d also like to get my Tumblr community discount codes from these merchants to help lessen your own financial pressures right now. These two things will be mandatory, but brands who participate can also choose to offer some optional perks (see below).

Drop your suggestions: Which food/grocery brands would you like me to reach out to? Which hunger-relief charities or food banks need a win right now?

Leave your brands and charities in the comments. I’ll get to work reaching out to these brands and report back on who steps up. As I challenge these brands, help me succeed by putting the power of the crowd behind me by following and sharing this.

God calls us to pay attention to the needs of others and to serve with Love.

He calls us to show kindness and compassion🤗💖.

It was the example Jesus set when he fed the multitude, healed the sick, and asked us to Love.

So, let's try! Let's do our part.
