Needs
-
Financial Support (monthly or one time gifts):
We are reaching a CRUCIAL situation...our support has dropped 60% in June & July. Thanks to TIMELY one time gifts that came in early August we have enough for this month. However we are faced with some tough news in a few weeks without the stability to continue living here & start large projects.
Please contact us (tenmilliontoes@gmail.com) with any monthly support start up or changes, so that we can notify Apparent Project how to direct your funds.
For one time giving or checks, place “Barlow family” in the comments area.
