Users cannot assume that any post has been vetted and must do their own investigation.

RULES:

1. All mutual aid requests must go in this community.
2. Mods do not vet individual mutual aid requests. Donate at your own risk and hold each other accountable. If you see something even remotely suspicious, do not hesitate to bring it to the attention of a moderator for review.
3. Do not request donations for funding anything explicitly illegal.
4. Comments giving unsolicited advice will be removed. (See below)
5. Comments that are critical of any mutual aid post or user will be removed. (See below)
6. Posts containing opsec leaks will be removed.

Additionally:

• If you wish to make a meta comment about the comm, provide unsolicited advice/resources, or hold another user accountable, then please make a separate post in this community, but do not ping them, or specifically claim that one user is an alt for another user.
• We strongly advise you ask people to send you a direct message to obtain information regarding payment to prevent inadvertent opsec leaks.
• Please consider editing the title of a mutual aid post to include [Covered] or [Need Met] when a request has been satisfied or goal met.
• Consider not making comments about receiving large donations, or about what that money is spent on.

Moderator Pinning Rules:

• Moderators are strictly prohibited from promoting/endorsing/pinning individual mutual aid requests (especially those of their own) as this creates unfair post visibility and could therefore benefit more from that than the standard user. Moderators caught engaging in this behavior will be swiftly removed from the moderator board with extreme prejudice.

• Moderators are allowed to pin and crosspost donation requests for large scope issues such as natural disaster relief funds and bail funds ((Example)[https://hexbear.net/post/16574) along with other crowd or moderator-compiled informational resources pertaining to donating or volunteering (Example), so long as the utmost due diligence is done prior to endorsement, especially in the case of directing people to donate to non-profit organizations.

• Financial documents of non-profit organizations available to the public must be heavily scrutinized before moderator endorsement, and links to those must also be included in the endorsement post to help the community make their own decision if they should donate.

MODERATORS

    Just so everyone is aware, I would like to make it as clear as possible just how grateful and appreciative I truly, truly am.  If anybody could possibly help me out with even just a few dollars towards a tent, tarps, and some DRY, WARM, AND COMFY blankets so that my partner Andi I don't freeze to death being as we are currently homeless, that would be spectacular.  Also, a few dollars to put towards some healthy , delicious food would also be quite awesome.  My Venmo is @KeralaDee baileyphone2023@gmail, and my Paypal is also @KeralaDee baileyphone2023@gmail.  Thank you.  Happy new year.
