Giving Tuesdays #2
Medical expenses, authentic relating, coaching, co-working, etc.
Welcome back to Giving Tuesdays, a feature of On Humanity to support one another and those around us. As described here, every other week your requests or offers to this mutual exchange form will be posted here. Submit one anytime!
Below are responses that came in this past week. As you will see, they are very diverse. Caroline asks to support a friend’s medical expenses; Jeffrey and Emily have networking and coaching-related requests and offers; Nita’s editing and health coaching submission is carried over from last time. Please reach out to me if you would like to connect with either of these individuals; I will gladly facilitate the introduction.
Regardless of your location or level of need, if you are seeking even minor help in anything (or willing to offer to others) — such as a piece of advice on some matter — or a more significant kind of support, please fill out the form for your submission to be featured two weeks from now.
Caroline:
Request: Please help my friend with transport costs to the medical center. He's undergoing treatment for cirrhosis. Brutum has helped many people in his community, including assault survivors. Unfortunately he is unable to return to work now.
