we’ve supported a whole host of charities and mutual aid funds so far, including TWLOHA, Starlight, Cool Earth, ASAN, an event we called Small Acts Big Difference where people can fundraise for local or mutual aid funds, and more!! best place to look is our Tiltify page for most of the info :D

Instead of having an application period we've decided to move towards rolling applications - the form will remain open and apps will be reviewed on an intermittent basis.

As always, we encourage creators of all sizes to apply, and love to hear from marginalized creators and folks across the globe🪐

live now with a big cart of books - it's charity stream time! 🌟

for every $5 you donate you can "claim" a book from my collection and reveal it's reward. you'll hear summaries of books I haven't read in a year, influence my TBR, create a stream's favorites book list, and more!
