Ok I know I have done a couple of fundraisers for Rachel recently, but neither of them are as important as this one.
As most of you know, Rachel has cancer and has been through a few operations to get to the point where they can start treating her with Chemo. In the interim, other things conspired against her... she lost her job among other things.
Which has caused a huge financial burden on her at a time where it is most needed. Paying for her treatment has drained what funds she has and with no paycheck coming in until he treatment is done in 18 weeks, she doesn't have the ability to pay bills, Haven hosting and basic necessities like food.
She is too proud to ask for help... I don't think she understands just how much she is appreciated by her friends and all of us at the Haven who she gave a safe haven for us to express a part of our lives we cannot share with everyone. I personally owe her so much for making this place and I will do whatever I can financially and emotionally to help her out.
So this is the most important fund raiser I have ever spearheaded for Rachel and the Haven. I am asking for donations to help Rachel out financially in this most challenging point in her life... I want to prove to her that she has the support, backing and love of the Havenettes and that we have her back like she has had our backs all theses years.

And Rachel, before you boil me in oil for posting this... shut up, sit down and just bask in the love from the Haven.
