I said we were done asking for rent money. But today I heard the horrifying fact that there are zero family shelter beds in the entire state of Minnesota. So we are going to try something new. We are going to do peer to peer funding. You take on urgent‼️ funding for one family. You send to them.

I currently have 12 families in need by tomorrow. If you feel like you can do this in time, really commit, and get it done ASAP, please send me a message on signal at asiniiwiikwe.72 and I will send you a family.

There aren’t any tax implications for receiving amounts OVER $19k either. The tax burden is on the gift-giver. Also, that $19k amount is per person, per donor. So if a donor gives individual donations to multiple recipients in the same family, they can give up to $19k per person.

And the “tax implication” is just filing a form to ensure you don’t exceed some $1+ million lifetime gift limit between any two people. It seems silly for poor folks, but it’s to prevent rich people from avoiding even more taxes than they already do.

Tax implications can be different depending on which US state you live in (I think Connecticut has their own gift tax in addition federal limits). But hopefully anyone who is gifting $19k+/person/year has a tax professional to guide their circumstances. In any case, gift recipients, worry not!
