VanillaSalt getting back on her feet

Padiuxi everyone! In case you don't already know me I go by VanillaSalt on TikTok, I usually make anime content and am known throughout "NativeTikTok" for speaking up on issues as a Zapotec/Indigenous woman.

I have no choice but to ask for help from my friends, family, and social network. Most of you may already know I’m a stay at home mom with no outside income. I’ve put myself in a vulnerable position and I’m being taken advantage of right now. I’m doing what I can to find a job, but was recently physically injured in a violent domestic incident and was unable to start at Amazon where I had landed a job. I’m facing an onslaught of legal, financial, emotional, and physical threats. I have some family support and my volleyball teammate has helped me with housing. I have hired an attorney and ex-parte allegations against me are being dismissed for lack of evidentiary support. I’m definitely in a much better place than I was in three weeks ago thanks to family and friend support.

I still need help being able to cover attorney’s fees and items needed for a 2 year old. I’m requesting emotional help, physical help (I am in the Denver metro area), and financial help to get to a healthy place and feel belonging in community. If you are able to help in any of these ways, it will help me get out of this situation and I greatly appreciate it. I want to make it very clear that the funds from this will only go towards attorney fees. I will make updates every time I make a payment to them so everyone can see where the funds are going.

If you'd like to help in other ways financially or not I have other options: Venmo (@vanillasalt) and Cashapp (@vanillasalt333). In the notes please put what the donation is for (ex: gas, food, diapers, bills) and I will allocate them accordingly and also update that on here as well. I want to ensure full transparency throughout this entire process.

There is an Amazon wish list (here) in case anyone isn't comfortable with helping monetarily for things like diapers, nonperishable foods, sensory items for our daughter since she is a sensory needs baby, etc.

If you need to reach out to me regarding anything you can do so on Instagram, send me a message request to @vanillasalt333 Please be aware I will not be accepting follow requests for safety reasons, I would like to keep my privacy during this time but my inbox is open to receive message requests and I am happy to answer any questions you may have.

Even if you can't donate, I appreciate you sharing this to spread this message. Thank you for taking time to read this all the way through and I hope you have a wonderful day.
