Sorry to miss out on this year's Fairbanks Animal Shelter Fund Garage Sale out at the fairgrounds (just today and tomorrow) - if you're going I hope you find something cool (or practical) that you didn't even know you wanted.

#News #MOONBIN

fans of singer MOON BIN (Astro) contacted us. They want to say #goodbye AND support a #goodcause.

Here is their WE AID page for donations in memory of the singer – what we like: Its not flowers but support for the living lending a helping hand through your donations:

@BillySmith I mean this is a completely different thing, that might be cool in itself, but requires a level of wealth and privilege that's completely out of reach for those that would be protected by #GoodCause

It's also more individualistic.

It's those facing financial precarity, especially Black and Brown and LGBTQ folx that are most likely to face housing discrimination and nom-renewal evictions that Good Cause would prevent, so we absolutely still need this policy.

Apologies for the paywall, but establishment Dems have failed the working class once again.

By mid-week it was looking like #GoodCause would pass and had the votes, but then they mysteriously bent the knee to big landlords.

We will have to get more leftists in, and try again.

MASSIVE #housing rally coming up on May 20 in NYC to support #GoodCause Eviction policies that would protect tenants.

Sign up here if you want to take a bus for free to the city with cool leftists to go pressure Governor Hochul to do the right thing (she never will, unless under popular pressure)

This specifically applies to you #Ithaca #twithaca

So great to join @AOC, @NYWFP, @nycDSA, and many other organizers yesterday in the People’s Republic of Astoria to rally for #BuildPublicRenewables, #GoodCause, and #TaxtheRich. We know #TenantsCantWait! https://twitter.com/nywfp/status/1646278561647476736

RT @NYWFP
.@AOC: “So when we talk about fighting for the people, fighting to pass #GoodCause eviction is essential. And we have to push Governor Hochul to make sure that she includes this in the budget. And we need to say progressive representation actually means something.”

"When...

⚫️The rent is too damn high - pass #GoodCause
⚫️Fossil fuel companies control our energy system - pass #BuildPublicRenewables
⚫️We live in the most unequal state and expensive city on the planet - #TaxTheRich"

Wise words from @breadpipeline

RT @RocTenantUnion
@SenatorCooney has received the second most in NYC real estate donations out of ANY sitting upstate legislator.

Sign back onto #GoodCause, @JeremyCooneyROC! https://public-accountability.org/report/pay-to-play/

RT @RocTenantUnion
@SenatorCooney had the 9th highest eviction rate in the STATE in his district.

And yet he’s too busy receiving $$ real estate donations $$ to sign onto #GoodCause

RT @RocTenantUnion
NEW: Monroe County had the FOURTH HIGHEST eviction rate in NYS last year.

Rochester tenants can’t wait. We need #GoodCause, #HAVP, and Right to Counsel. https://blogs.cornell.edu/nysevictions/

RT @housing4allNY
BREAKING: dozens of tenants and homeless New Yorkers are blocking the entrance to @GovKathyHochul’s office for 78 minutes — for the 78,000 New Yorkers currently homeless.

We need #GoodCause and #HAVP IN THE BUDGET.

Double-header in Albany in the final week of #budget season! Went up Tuesday morning with NY Renews & Sunrise NYC to demand Stewart-Cousins, Heastie, and Hochul #PassTheCJJP for #ClimateJobsJustice. Stayed for the #CoverageForAll rally as part of NYCC's and IONY's #TaxTheRichTakeover, spent the night, went to another #CoverageForAll rally 1st thing in the morning, then directly to join HJ4A & RG to demand #GoodCause, finishing with my 29th arrest as part of the #TaxTheRichTakeover

Anyone have advice re: auctions related to progressive causes here on Mastodon? I have stacks of quilted pillows, checkerboard games, Advent calendars, etc that I’d like to donate to help raise funds. It’s something I did on the bird site but haven’t found a similar system here - any recommendations?

Median asking rent for NYC residential properties rose to $3,450/month in January – the first monthly increase since August 2022.

As cost of living rises, how can tenants stay afloat?

That's where #GoodCause, #HAVP, and other tenant protections are key.

Madelynn Cheung, a #Grade1 #student at #Skwowech #ElementarySchool, decided to #sacrifice her long locks for a #GoodCause - to #donate her #hair and raise money for #WigsForKidsBC — an organization that helps #children dealing with #cancer & other #illnesses .

She set a fundraising goal of $1,000. 
As of today, her #WigsForKids #fundraising drive has brought in $2,095 👏

There are some really #good and important #issues that could be supported on #ChangeDotOrg. I really would love to #support some of them

Unfortunately they depend on #google , its #services, and worst of all they point directly to Google’s #PrivacyPolicy on their website

I want to support a #GoodCause or 2, not sell my soul.

Is there anything yet similar, in the #fediverse?

Could there be?

I've been making #microloans—small contributions, slowly paid back and reinvested—through #Kiva for many, many years.

Over the years a small loan of $25+, reinvested again and again, can make a huge difference.

Over 13 years, Kiva has allowed me to support 55 people/groups throughout the world with a total of nearly $1,500!
