Thanks for considering me enough to open this link!
This ask comes on the tail of the folx I know showing up hard to save my vehicle from repossession (thank you!), and important trans migrant community grieving access needs right now. Our community is mourning the unnecessary deaths of another detained sibling and an upsurge in the murders of black trans women. No one should die because they are living their true lives or because they are denied basic care. Please see the links to the TRANSportation fundraiser , and crowdfunding pages, and donate to my cause if you have extra.
Next chapter: my car
3 months ago I grounded my car due to suspension and rotor repair needs from work that unfortunately wasn’t properly completed (read: it wasn’t done at all) when it was brought in for repair in December 2016. That shop has since closed. A mechanic recently confirmed that the factory struts were still on the car from 2004. Only the control arms were replaced. The car has been down many a dirt road and pothole laden boulevard in that time.
Fortunately, A friend’s trusted mechanic was able to quote and finish the work for about half of what other places would do. As often happens, more work needed to be completed when he got inside. Through the grace of: many friends offering up their cars to borrow, the ability to bike, side jobs in community, and moving in with lovely roommates, I’ve been able to scurry away about $900, $500 short of the end repair price. The mechanic has held the vehicle a week passed its repair completion, and my efforts have brought me this far.
My ask
I’m here to ask for some help getting my car on the road again via:
-No strings attached donations
(here, or Venmo: cal-mcmanus, or cashapp: $calmcmanus)
-purchase a group of discounted mobile massage (maybe get friends together and split ‘em:)
10, 1-hour massages $500 ($50 each)
-personal loan repayable by August 1
Thanks for reading this far and for your consideration.
