My fellow guildmates,
I know a lot of people are going through tough times because of this epidemic. Thousands of people are getting fired, laid off, or otherwise simply cannot work because of fear and government stated quarantine and social distancing. The guild has dozens of members, so I don't think it's a wild thought to assume that some of us might be severely struggling with rent, utilities, and food.
If there is a demand, me and other guild members would like to start a fundraiser to help people in need during the crisis. If you/your family needs money, please PM me or post here in this thread. If you feel uneasy taking money from your guildmates, know that we are going to be offering services in exchange of donations, such as proofreading and text editing, photo editing, coding or programming, RP banners, covers, dividers, signatures and custom character sheets, and character sketches and drawings.
Please be honest in what you need help with and we will help you. The purpose of this thread is to know if there is a demand for this fundraiser. If it's even just one person, we'll do it.
Thank you for reading and stay safe!
Update: Apr 28, 2020
We have started the GoFundMe for the fundraiser a few weeks ago. If no one on the guild needs financial help, we'd like to donate the money to a COVID-19 related charity.
Thanks again and take care!
Update: May 1, 2020
It is with great satisfaction that I say no one has requested help, and therefore I will end the fundraiser. I take it as a good thing since it means our members are doing relatively well and not struggling. Thank you everyone who supported the idea and helped me set it in motion. <3
Stay safe!
