Hey, everyone. This is Ryen / kithtaehyung, and I am temporarily opening both gfx and writing requests to fundraise for the Maui Fire Victims.

To keep explanations short: I'm simply using this blog to spread awareness of where and how to donate, while offering my skillset as a way to help the state I consider a second home.

There will be categories for requests, but you can also use this post as a way to learn about contributing if you don't want/need anything other than wanting to help. 

What's Happening: Thousands sought shelter in evacuation centers after at least 271 buildings burned, leveling much of Lahaina town in Maui, HI. 

RELIEF FUNDS TO CHOOSE FROM:

Maui Strong Fund

Maui Food Bank

Maui Humane Society

Maui United Way

Public Schools of Hawaii Foundation

Council for Native Hawaiian Advancement

Any other organization of your choice if you don't see yours here. The links listed go straight to each organization, and I encourage everyone to do your research before choosing. 

CATEGORIES FOR REQUESTS:

Graphics (portfolio)

Drabbles (masterlist, sfw/nsfw)

3tan Drabbles (+18 series, sfw/nsfw)

Form for tracking donations/requests: ENTER HERE (Please read through. There's a lot of info, but I wanted to make it as thorough as possible. Let me know if you have any questions!) FORM CLOSES ON 23.08.19

NOTE: Even though the minimum I am setting is $5 for requests, you can literally donate any amount you feel compelled to and it doesn't have to be for a request at all. If you don't have the means or don't want to donate, please at least spread this post!

DISCLAIMER: There may be a long wait time for requests, but this is for a cause I feel strongly about. I am making it a goal to finish all the requests received, whether it's 1 or 100.

i wish i could help more but since i have a bit of a reach from posting about polynesian issues especially after the past month, i'll try this. any kānaka maoli are welcome to reblog this post and start a reblog chain with their paypal/cashapp etc. or the info of anyone they know needs help after the fires and i'll boost it as much as i can. if you can't donate i'd ask people to reblog to spread the word around and get a bigger reach.

kia māia, kia kaha me kia haumaru, tōku hawai'i whānau. waimarie ki a koutou me kia ora tō whānau. te kotahitanga i waenganui i nga tangata moana.

The earth is simply following the path humans have tread upon it, and that path is laden with destruction and fire.

We can help those who have escaped the devastation, though.

At least there is that.

hey mr Gaiman! when u posted about the strike in July I really got into it as I want to become a producer and writer. I read a lot and informed my friends. Then you asked your tumblr community to donate and I happily did. I even asked my mom to donate and conversed with her about the strike and how it really about the little man, those we usually can’t even name. That made me think about my values, and how the little man isn’t always in the industry I aspire to join but in Maui, a queer runaway, an abused mom seeking shelter, etc. I began donating whenever a link or a fundraiser came my way and I think I’ve donated about 50$. It may not seem much but as a 16 yo babysitter it’s half of my july earnings, and I haven’t even worked yet this month. in short: u inspired me to donate to those in need more than a month ago and I still do whenever I can. thank you.

I'm really proud of you. Well done.
