Ray Rooney, sometimes also known by his artist's monniker RUNE', and one of the founders of the fandom we all know and enjoy is in some rather dire need of assistance. The house he lives in has been sold to developers, and he has been told to clear out so that it can be torn down and replaced with a trendy condo complex.
He's living on social security, and he needs help to scrape together the funds needed to move himself and his cat:

For those of you who don't know who he is, he ran what were known as Furry Parties, at the local science fiction convention PHILCON, in the Adam's Mark hotel in PA. These room parties acted as ground zero for a group of furs which grew year after year, until they became the founding core of the group that went on to populate and run ANTHROCON, in the same hotel.
So basically, ANTHROCON exists because of this guy.
One of his room parties was also where I discovered the fandom, way back in the late 80's. One of his posters was the first piece of true furry art I'd ever seen. I don't know if I'd even be here if not for him doing what he did.
So, throw him whatever you can afford, because really... you owe him.
We all do.

Sadly seeing way too many things like this lately. :(
Toss in a couple of bucks to help him out though.
Was just reading that 40% of Americans have no savings or resources to cope with the slightest emergency - never mind being ill and risking homelessness.
If not for this guy I would never have met you! I want to help.
