I had to have a minor procedure due to a complication with my chemotherapy port; I was released from the hospital earlier this morning. Unfortunately, this was a highly unexpected expense, and I won’t be paid until the 28th of this month. I am trying to raise some money, about $300, to cover the costs related to the rest of my scheduled medical appointments this month. My CashApp tag is $JackHF84; my Venmo tag is @JackHF84; I also use Zelle and will give my phone number in private messages. (I’m new to CashApp and Venmo, please forgive me if I err.) Thank you in advance.

Incidentally, if anyone knows of any jobs in the Chicago area in the service, restaurant, or retail industries, please let me know, as I will be seeking a second job, probably in the next few weeks. My scans and tests in the hospital were looking good, so I’ll probably be coming off chemo sooner rather than later. My current job is mostly remote and self-directed, so any shift or hours will probably workable for me.

EDIT: Some people have already donated. I don't know how to send messages on Venmo, but thank you and I'll respect your anonymity.

1. Moderator Pinning Rules:
a. Moderators are strictly prohibited from promoting/endorsing/pinning individual mutual aid requests (especially those of their own) as this creates unfair post visibility and could therefore benefit more from that than the standard user.

Moderators are allowed to pin and crosspost to !main donation requests for large scope issues such as natural disaster relief funds and bail funds (Example) along with other crowd or moderator compiled informational resources pertaining to donating or volunteering (Example) so long as the utmost due diligence is done prior to endorsement, especially in the case of directing people to donate to non-profit organizations.

c. Financial documents of non-profit organizations available to the public must be heavily scrutinized before moderator endorsement and links to those must also be included in the endorsement post to help the community make their own decision as to whether or not they should donate.
