(Y'all I just had a genius idea!!!) Let’s Put Our Hotel Points Where Our Hearts Are- Right now, across the country, countless people are facing the brutal reality of winter or the brutal reality of wild fires without stable housing. Survivors. Veterans. Families. Victims. People who have done everything right but still find themselves without a safe place to go. One of them is a survivor leader and her grandson in Virginia. Their home was just condemned. No electricity. No support from the landlord. And while we will pursue legal action on her behalf, that doesn’t help them right now. Others are community members we serve in Memphis. The amazing neighborhoods and folks of South Memphis. ❤️❤️❤️ Both VA and TN have been slammed with double digits inches of snow. Others are in CA - their whole lives devastated by fires. What they need right now is safety, warmth, and stability. Here’s where we come in. Most of us don’t even think about our hotel rewards points— they sit there, accumulating, until they expire. But what if those points could literally save lives? Think about it: ✅ Many people aren’t traveling right now due to weather. ✅ Hotel points expire if they aren’t used. ✅ Those points can be donated to put someone in a warm, safe place. We need to collectively pool our points to: - help this survivor and her grandson stay somewhere safe while we work on a long-term housing solution. - help our incredible community of friends on the streets of South Memphis stay warm. -help organizations like Fill the Needs provide direct boots on the ground resources to victims of the CA fires. If you have points with hotel rewards programs, let’s put them to use. This is how we show up. This is how we take care of each other. This is how we turn something small—something most people forget about—into something that changes lives. Drop a comment, DM me, or email if you have hotel points you can contribute. Let’s make this happen. I also can accept donations for the survivor in Virginia and can send you to the donation link page for any Memphis cash donations----> wefightmonsters.org If you want to donate directly to the CA wildfire response -----> Fill the Needs & Amy Sins Filltheneeds.org I am going to tag some of my people here because I think this is such a good idea and lots of y'all travel a lot, and know people who travel a lot, and have huge networks and I'd appreciate you sharing!

Immediate Need: I have a survivor leader who has no heat in her home, for her and her grandson. we are searching for emergency assistance if anyone knows of any available support in Virginia Beach/Norfolk? While she will be looking into legal actions when she can, her immediate need is heat. She has spent the last of her money on a hotel (that her landlord was supposed to pay, but is refusing) and she can no longer sustain this. I can accept donations and ensure they will fully get to her. It always breaks my heart to see survivors who are giving back, using their pain for purpose and the support of others, still struggling to maintain basic needs like heat for their families. Please send any resources you have way!
