Help is urgently needed going into the holidays. Helping Humpday at Street Prophets [1]

Welcome to the Street Prophets Coffee Hour, the place where politics meets up with religion, science, nature, art, and life. Come in, have a cuppa and a cookie (or three!) and join us.

Helping Humpday is the Wednesday Street Prophets Coffee Hour. It was created for us by bfitzinAR and was taken over by Dixiecollie, who also left suddenly. Now it’s njm5000 who keeps the list of Kossacks in need. Helping Humpday is still here, the place where we can show caring and offer help.

A couple of our needs have been on the list for a while now. They could use a little help, both in reaching their goals and in relieving their stress. Financial difficulties are not easy to deal with and they take a toll on both physical and mental health.

A couple of needs are new but urgent and time sensitive. They, too, need attention. I say frequently to bfitzinAR, the need is great and there are few willing to help. That doesn’t apply to people who are unable to help financially. It applies to people with great wealth and resources who choose not to share in holding society together. Many, many thanks for those of you who offer a kind word, who comment and rec the ask diaries, who share links on other platforms. All of that helps.

Now that the holiday shopping is under way, I’d also encourage you to check out the Kos Katalogue. Even if you didn’t know you wanted it, it’s in there. A link to the final version is at the end of the needs list.

Some of the needs on the list are ongoing, but some are time-sensitive or even urgent. Please, look over the list. Do only what you can, but do what you can. If it’s a donation, that’s great. If it’s a share, that’s great. If it’s a like and rec, that’s great, too. I’m thankful for everyone who does something. There are goals on the list that are within reach. Anything you can do will help them. Details for these and other needs are in today’s list, compiled and posted by njm5000 in today’s important Village diary, Dealing with holiday stress?! by Joker2101.

There are goals on the list that are within reach.

If you are thinking of asking for help, you might want to connect with someone who has experience here on DK.
