I am an artist located in the Kansas City metro area.  Last night, Monday, October 24th I discovered that my trailer has been stolen.  Not just the trailer but all of my equipment for art fairs and roughly 100 paintings.  I had not planned in buying a new tent, trailers, walls at this time.  So against my better judgement I am reaching out to anyone who loves art to help an artist out.   Ideally I would find my trailer, supplies and work.  If I do not I will need to purchase new supplies for spring art fairs. I have been doing art professionally for about 9 years now, showing all over the Kansas City Metro, the midwest and as far East as Florida.  It is what I do, I also have a three year old son that I need to provide for.  Thank you for time. <a href="http://via.fox4kc.com/wiI7B" target="_blank" class="" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">http://via.fox4kc.com/wiI7B</a>

Please see our new campaign for more information here: <a href="https://www.gofundme.com/forthe49" target="_blank"><a href="https://www.gofundme.com/forthe49" target="_blank" class="" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://www.gofundme.com/forthe49</a></a> In the aftermath of the massacre at Pulse, Equality Florida made two promises. First, we would do everything we could to help the families of those killed and the survivors dealing with the physical and emotional pain of being targeted in the worst anti-LGBTQ hate crime in U.S. history. You helped us keep the first promise by contributing, online and in person, more than $9M. And we have kept our word that every penny we collected - even the interest that accrued on the funds - is going to the victims of Pulse. No staff or overhead. We’ve donated all of our time. On September 27th, those funds will be disbursed and now our attention must focus entirely on fulfilling the second promise - to honor the dead with action. Thoughts and prayers and symbols are not enough. We are committed to ensuring the lasting memorial is the real change of uprooting anti-LGBTQ hatred at the source. To keep this promise, we need you with us again. Our mission for the last 19 years has been to uproot bigotry and fight for equality for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people in Florida. Indeed, we fight for freedom for all Floridians to live without fear of violence, harm to their family, being fired from a job or refused service because of their sexual orientation and gender identity. The massacre at Pulse has made this vision a priority for millions more people in the state of Florida. We have never been closer to a huge breakthrough in LGBTQ protections in a state that will have ripple effects nationally. It is time for us to demand huge strides, not tiny measures, in changing the culture and the laws in Florida to ensure we stop the discrimination and violence that anti-LGBTQ hatred makes inevitable. We are asking you now to join us in achieving two goals that are ambitious but achievable if we have the courage to stand together. Banning anti-LGBTQ discrimination in Florida and passing gun violence prevention policies in the third most populous state in the country. Florida has a long and hateful history when it comes to the treatment of LGBTQ people and has been the springboard for national anti-gay campaigns from Anita Bryant to the Liberty Counsel. Florida-based groups have not only done harm here, they’ve exported their prejudice to states around the nation and other countries as well. But the tide has turned in our favor as hearts have softened and minds have opened in the wake of Pulse. Shame on us if we let this moment pass without pushing with all our might for the state to treat us all as equals under the law and to end easy access to weapons of mass slaughter. We are so very grateful to have found the resources to help these people and their families get services, make up for lost wages, heal wounds and begin to put their lives back together. Will you stand with us again and fulfill the promise of real change as the lasting memorial #ForThe49? Inspired by our work in the aftermath of Pulse, an anonymous donor will match the first $100,000 raised for this campaign. That means the gift you give today will be doubled!

Después de que experimentaban negociaciones prolongadas y estresantes tratando de recoger el dinero donado en su nombre, pidieron el Centro Nacional para Víctimas de Crimen para para desarrollar un nuevo modelo para las donaciones — un modelo que sirve genuinamente a las víctimas, los donantes y el público en general. NCVC ha comenzado la dispersión de los fondos a corto plazo de las víctimas de “Pulse” y estan conectando las víctimas con los fondos inmediatamente disponibles a través de recursos federales y estatales.

We are heartbroken and angry that senseless violence has once again destroyed lives in our state and in our country. Gay clubs hold a significant place in LGBTQ history. They were often the only safe gathering place and this horrific act strikes directly at our sense of safety. June commemorates our community standing up to anti-LGBTQ violence at the Stonewall Inn, the nightclub that has become the first LGBTQ site recognized as a national monument. We have received a steady stream of emails and messages from those seeking to help or to make sense of the senseless. We make no assumptions on motive. We will await the details in tears of sadness and anger. We stand in solidarity and keep our thoughts on all whose lives have been lost or altered forever in this tragedy.
