Yesterday I asked for potential volunteers to come alongside Ruth and work with Speak Up to help her with online publishing and other creative projects.
I talked with her on the phone today and she’s really excited about the possible partnerships there. Please do email me if you’re interested.
Also — there is a financial need.
Ruth sells Speak Up magazines and personally-designed greeting cards as her source of income. We’re looking for donors who can help fund some small print runs for these to re-equip her with needed supplies. She’s also seen her medical costs skyrocket due to new medications.
Aiming for $800 total. The first $200 covers a quick print run of greeting cards. The next $250 goes to emergency support. The rest covers a magazine print run for her to sell at a higher profit, which will sustain her income for several months.
Thanks for considering! Your gifts are tax-deductible.
All best,
Matt Shaw
Executive Director
