OKAY GUYS LISTEN UP.

EVERYONE NEEDS TO BE AWARE OF THIS SHIT. IF YOU HAVE NOT SEEN THIS VIDEO YET I ADVISE THAT YOU WATCH IT. THIS IS SHIT THAT IS HAPPENING RIGHT NOW AS WE SPEAK. GAY U.S. TEENAGERS ARE BEING KIDNAPPED AGAINST THEIR WILL AND SENT TO THIS CAMP IN THE DOMINICAN REPUBLIC IN ORDER TO ‘SUCK THE GAY OUT OF THEM”. WHAT’S EVEN WORSE IS THAT THIER OWN PARENTS ARE SETTING THIS UP. THEIR OWN MOM AND/OR DAD ARE SENDING THEIR KIDS AWAY FOR BEING GAY. THIS VIDEO IS A PREVIEW FOR A DOCUMENTARY SOME PEOPLE ARE MAKING TO RAISE AWARENESS OF WHAT IS GOING ON AT THIS CAMP CALLED “KIDNAPPED FOR CHRIST”. THE TEENS THERE ARE GOING THROUGH HARSH LABOR AND PHYSICAL AND MENTAL ABUSE. THEY ARE FORCEFULLY TRYING TO TURN THEM STRAIGHT. 

PLEASE GUYS I BEG OF YOU FOR THE LOVE OF EVERYTHING THAT IS GOOD PLEASE SPREAD THIS NEWS! WE CANNOT LET THIS GO UNNOTICED. PLEASE TRY TO DONATE AT LEAST A DOLLAR TO http://www.kidnappedforchrist.com/#!support  SO YOU CAN SUPPORT THE FILM SO THAT EVERYONE CAN BE AWARE OF WHAT BULLSHIT IS GOING ON.

RIGHT NOW THEY HAVE RAISED $15,468 FOR THE FILM, BUT THEY NEED TO REACH THEIR GOAL OF $25,000 IN ORDER TO HAVE THE FILM FUNDED. THEY ONLY HAVE 18 DAYS LEFT TO MEET THAT GOAL. ONLY 18 DAYS LEFT. THAT’S NOT A LOT GUYS. THEY ONLY HAVE A LITTLE MORE THAN TWO WEEKS TO RAISE ENOUGH MONEY. SO PLEASE DONATE! IF YOU CAN’T, THEN REBLOG IT SO OTHERS MAY DO SO.

*URGENT LIFE OR DEATH, PROOF BELOW* IMMEDIATE LIFE-SAVING HELP NEEDED ONE LAST TIME!!

sopranish:

Tumblr friends. You all saved my life. Unfortunately I need help one last time to keep it that way.

You raised $3,000 for my major brain surgery in October. Well, the bill is $9,600– Medicaid covered the hospital, NOT the doctor(!!). due to financial hardship, it’s reduced to $4,500.

The problem: the doctor HAS TO adjust and monitor my new neuro implant every other week, and I WILL DIE WITHOUT THE ADJUSTMENTS. But he is NOT ALLOWED to see me more than once more unless this is paid.

The reduction has conditions: I must pay $1,000 by Dec 16, the $3,500 balance by Dec 23.

This is a terrible blow to me, I can’t stop crying in sheer frustration.

So, sadly, I must ask for help one last time (I can get on Free Care in April). You’ve all already been so generous. The SPNFamily, and Tumblr at large has been amazing. And if there were any way to avoid asking, I would.

PLEASE DONATE IF YOU CAN! I’ve set up a PayPal with the email lartpourlartnow@gmail.com to accept funds (if you “send to a friend” there’s no fee). The hospital can only accept payment from me.

I know the Holidays are already an expensive time. Maybe give someone the gift of saving a life in their name? And I know I recently got so much help from you all. If I had any way to avoid this I would. And of course I’m happy to repay with fics, songs, editing, or anything I can.

As it is I’m also homeless and sometimes staying with my violent abusive parents, other times staying with friends. Every cent I get is going to other medical expenses and necessities.

PLEASE SHARE THIS as far and wide as you can! Whether or not you can give, others may be able to.

Thank you all so so much. Below are some photos just to show what I mean. They called me with the settlement, but the original bill is there, as well as a few of my scars.

Thank you again! PLEASE DONATE AND SHARE IF YOU CAN, and ask me any questions.

That thing that happened at RISD, in great detail.

whathappenedatrisd:

for anyone whose found this off of tumblr and not from the Medium article I wrote. I suggest you read the article first so this doesn’t seem quite as panicked and messy as it actually is (and makes a little more sense).

edit (11/11): tw- harassment, abuse, medical abuse. I’m sorry to anyone this has triggered who didn’t come here via the Medium article with some idea of what this would be about.

This is absolutely appalling but needs to be spread. Signal boost the hell out of this.
