Goal
Hi I'm Nomi. Last year I had an accident and ended up having several surgeries that cost me a lot of money. 2022 has been particularly rough for my freelancer income due to these health issues and the whole global recession thing. The $8/hour part time job I managed to find after weeks of applications certainly won't help me much for paying those medical bills. Thankfully, I managed to claim some of the surgery costs with my health insurance but there's still more to pay and have almost run out of savings. So, I need your help. Please help me pay the medical bills.
Your donation will go straight to my bank (except for the 3.6% of the money that Donorbox takes). The money raised will be used to cover the medical bills and costs associated with the surgeries (e.g. travel and accommodation). Any additional money collected will help me not to stress about immediately funding new freelance gigs so I can rest and fully recover. (I still do work and I'd like to do so but I need to take it slow)
A little bit about myself for those who don’t know me: I’m a videomaker and illustrator, you might have seen some of my work if you participated to the Global Game Jam in 2018 (I was responsible for one of the keynote videos) or A MAZE. / Berlin in the past few years (the animations you saw on stage and during streams were mine). I’ve also been involved in several other events (Talk & Play, Scrambleshake), more recently the GÆMZ meetup for art/experimental games & playful media in Tokyo which I’ve started from scratch. You can find links to my work at https://linktr.ee/the_nomi
If you could kindly share this campaign on the internet and are looking for my handles and such, I'm @the_nomi on Twitter & Instagram and Mastodon.social

P.S. I really wanted to include PayPal as a payment method option but as PayPal suspends account quite easily when the balance is exceeds a certain amount of money, I had to omit that option to prevent that from happening. So please use your credit/debit/prepaid card or Google Pay (if you really really need to go for PayPal, you can find my PayPal on my Linktree)
P.P.S. As I mentioned above, it's a little bit risky to include PayPal as a payment option but I'd sometimes put it back on when I can monitor and control the balance on my PayPal account. So, if you see it, it's real and you can use it. Sorry for the confusion and inconvenience!
P.P.P.S. A good friend of mine told me that they didn't see the option to change the currency. It's USD by default but if you see a little downwards arrow, that's a pull down menu and you can pick your preferred currency.
20 January update: we reached 20% of the goal so far. This is just incredible. Thank you so much!!!
16 February update: we got 100 donations! Aaaaaaa!!! 100 backers!!!!!! Amazing. Thank you!!!!!!!!!
