I hate to do this · 5:46am Apr 4th, 2022
Friends, meet Agatha:
She's a pretty awesome little hound dog. Unfortunately, she had an incident on April 2nd and is currently at the animal hospital on oxygen and antibiotics. Long story short, she threw up and coughed at the same time, and inhaled a bit of the vomit. The contents of a dog's stomach (or any stomach, really) is loaded with all sorts of nasty bacteria, so right now she's at risk for pneumonia. She's doing well so far, but this kind of treatment for a pet costs much, much more than you might be expecting, and accordingly, I'm setting up donation campaigns to help with the cost. Any amount if helpful, really, even if it's just a dollar.
I have been unable to sign into GoFundMe; I can get to the sign-in page, and it just hangs after I input my credentials. Until I can get that sorted out, I have set up a campaign at GiveSendGo, which can be found at this link: https://www.givesendgo.com/G33E4
Here is Agatha helping me get dinner ready:
I know it's a high mark to clear, but any amount helps. Once GoFundMe is working, both campaigns will be running alongside each other and will be for the same thing, so if you donate to one, there is no need to donate to the other.
One more for the road:
ETA:
Stripe, who handles the payment processing, is still reviewing my account before fully activating it; apparently, this is a normal part of the onboarding process (that was of course never detailed anywhere). For the moment, you will receive an error if you attempt to donate. I will post an update when the issue is resolved.
will share this in the morning and if my acting check finally comes in send a few bucks your way. sending love and positive vibes her way.
for some reason it won't let me donate, but I'll at least try and signal boost :/

What happens when you try? Is there an error you can screen cap?
Tried to sign up and donate but it says that my account is "not authorized to make live charges." Not sure what to do about that.

That's an error from Stripe, who handles the payment processing, and is something that I need to address.

Same thing as PonyJosiah. Weird, because I've used Stripe in the past. Let me know if you figure anything out. :/

The account is still under onboarding review, according to Stripe support. I'll post an update blog when the issue is resolved.
Any updates on this? I've got a signal boost ready to pull the trigger on, but I figure no sense if the darn thing's not working for you yet. :|

The team that reviews these things is not being very responsive, so while waiting in looking for other solutions.
As it happens, I've gotten my schedule for the week redone, so I hope to have a bit more time to devote to that.
