Bit of an emergency. My brother (who has been waiting for a liver transplant to save his life) is short on money for his rent, food & medication. We're hoping to raise $1000 by December 4th. If you're able to help us out, I'd appreciate it. viciousminuteshour.com/salim

With social media becoming a lot more challenging to navigate when it comes to fundraising, I'm teaching free one-on-one workshops on how you can explore alternative ways of raising money for a project.

We were able to raise $100 yesterday for my brother's medication this week. If we can have three people donate $20 each, we've got his medication covered for the week while he waits for a liver transplant to save his life. Can you help him out? www.viciousminuteshour.com/salim

My brother Salim hasn’t seen a donation come in since mid-June. But if we can raise $160 today, we can at least help cover the cost of his medication for this week. So eight people donating $20 each. Can you help us, help him? viciousminuteshour.com/salim

I'll be starting a performance marathon fundraiser on Thursday for a few days. It'll be about helping not just my brother, but anyone who needs an organ transplant in this country. Right now, a little reposting would help a great deal (so would a donation!) www.viciousminuteshour.com/salim

My brother Salim has Stage 4 Liver Cirrhosis & needs a liver transplant to save his life. We've been raising funds for his rent, food & medication but he's only had two donations since May. I was wondering if you could help out & change that today. viciousminuteshour.com/salim

So, we've got a bit of an emergency. My brother is short on rent for this month (June) by about $600-$700. If we can raise money (or at least amplify the message) you'd be helping him a great deal. Every contribution counts. Can you help him out? www.viciousminuteshour.com/salim

We've only been able to raise $50 this June. I know things are pretty rough out there, but even what is considered to be a 'tiny' donation is actually super helpful. A lot of people pitching in a little bit goes a long way. So if you can help, I'd appreciate it. www.viciousminuteshour.com/salim

Hi folks - we have a new campaign to keep hope alive for our friends & their families in Gz. Anything you give will go directly to them for sustainable support, rather than sporadic pushes. Last check 338/650 for flour & clean water needs! Help them live: tinyurl.com/HopeGivingCi...

His wings are partly open and his head is turned to the right. In his beak is an anemone poppy in red ink with a green stem. On the right is the title "Keep hope alive: a gaza giving circle" in ink-effect font. The text says "We are a team of volunteers in the US and UK helping our friends on the ground keep their families and neighbors alive with food, water, & shelter. We distribute your contributions equally every week for sustainable support." In the bottom right corner in green text is the link tinyurl.com/HopeGivingCircle.

We've just about hit goal - if we can raise $150-$300 in the next couple of days (so eight people donating $20-$30) we can give my brother breathing room for his medication. Also I really appreciate everyone who has helped this week - I won't forget it. www.viciousminuteshour.com/salim

Just a quick note, as this is ALT text. Salim has been dealing with cataracts for a little while - they had to hold off on surgery on his eyes because of the risk of bleeding. That surgery is happening in June so hopefully it helps restore his sight properly and is a sign of good news ahead.

You were all so very helpful yesterday. We were all able to get right close to the goal, thanks to you. If I may ask - if we can raise about $350 more, we can also take care of his medication for next month. $20-$25 donations really do add up, if you're willing. www.viciousminuteshour.com/salim
