update 5/30: Omg. Did 24hours even pass? Holy crap, not only did we reach our minimum, but we reached the goal needed to really help out Adena. I am so proud of you guys.

If you donated $25&up: This means you will get a print of one of my artworks. I haven't decided on the dimensions yet. Those who donated $100+ will have the option of a commission from me. Because holy crap. You earned it. If you donated anonymously, please contact me via PM for your print or commission.



Hello SWRP,

Someone very close to many of us needs an ear and an open heart. She is known to many of us as Adena/Empress.

She have a wonderful family, are kind hearted, and have been with the site since the very beginning of the site. This person has lived their life being selfless towards others and offering friendship to whoever needed it.

Currently Adena has had a stroke of bad luck and needs time to help recover. They are at risk of losing their home that they raised their children in, and have proudly made their own. This family has always been proudly frugal, but now they need our help. They have 2,500 that they need to pay towards their mortgage to catch them up. That is the big thing.

The minimum we need to raise is $1000. This will bide them one month's time while Adena gets her resources together and see what action her family can take next. Even if you can only donate $10, it will at least buy gas money for a day or some food. Enough drops of rain makes an ocean.

Also, to encourage donating. I am offering incentives, and I ask ANYONE to offer one as well.

So far here is where we are on incentives:

$25- 1 print from myself of my work. signed by me.
not much so far. But hopefully that will change.

I will also add an FAQ as questions arrive.

Thank you everyone who participates!

Here is the link to the fundraiser! https://www.youcaring.com/help-a-neighbor/starwars-rpers-help-others-/184663

See above. Tweed and Myself worked on getting this setup for Adena. And we're also trying to coax her to post something about this in here too...but ya, don't worry you can make your donations anonymous and all of it is going to Adena.

Oh and if we do well, we'll all get to enjoy Adena being in full on tears of joy and amazement at this whole thing.

--Well, I haven't RPed with you yet Empress, but I don't want to lose the opportunity either! I hope you can keep your home. I will donate again if things aren't moving along fast enough!

I'm completely poor, but I know she's a great person. I've donated what I can, I know it's not much, but I've given what I can. :/

Every bit helps! And I think Adena is stunned in shock given the last response I saw on Skype.

Every little bit helps guys. I know Adena has been there for many of us in the past in one way or another. And I know we can be there for her too.

Some very generous people we have here at SWRP. It is amazing to see this happening... you all rock.

Tomorrow is pay day, I'll send something her way once I get my check.

Halfway to the minimum keep in mind =) the goal is for Adena to not be under the gun. The TRUE super amazing goal is the 2500. But still the 1000 she should be able to take a breath.

Amazing.

I am stripped for cash at the moment, but I get paid in one week. I'll do what I can for Adena and her family. She's a good friend to us all.

I know your mind loves mucking in the gutter, but for once drag it out, you filthy animal.

Every bit helps, even after the goal is reached. Though it's understandable why some people not being able too.

I honestly don't think I can even manage to form the words right now to actually make even a slight expression of what Im really feeling right now. I don't think there is any collection of words in any language that could possibly do that.

Thank you all so insanely much, I just....I cant thank you all enough. I was trying to keep this largely quiet and to myself and just happened to vent in a call annnnnd everything came out, and suddenly a day later? this. I never asked , I didnt want to pull anyone into something they didnt have stakes in, and I was falling apart doing it ( one month down, need to finish off the rest, but I can defiantly breathe now and the stress in the house has dropped down soooooo much .

THANK YOU THANK YOU, and props to Tweed and genkaku wo set everything up



The story is, for real context: since around x-mas my spouses word went on a holiday break cutting down our income, followed with the loss of her father weeks later and all the time we lost tending to all that. in that time we fell behind little by little and continued to fight and utilize every trick we could to buy time...the thing that broke our backs was once again my spouses job - they started a massive project that would have seen us through JUUUUUUUUUUUUUUST fine for a long while - however many of her co-workers utterly ****ed up ( she was praised for her work however) but this caused the company to " freeze" the whole project recently, effectively castrating our main income and while we can keep ourselves afloat had we been caught up but the damage was done already, and many of you have heard this too as its a big reason Ive been not AS active as I usually am .

but here you guys are now, friends, My extended family, SWRP has always been a home for me, Ive watched many members grow up from kids into adults here and really is a important place to me. I love all of you guys I truly do- even when someone wants a ewok-vong hybred with dragon fire breath and a wolverine like healing factor approved .

this....this just goes and once more reminds me how wonderful each and every one of you are and how special this place really is.

This is amazing.

I don't have anything right now, but on payday I will be making a contribution. Hang in there, Adena!
