You can do so here.

Possibly in increments of $18. (Symbologically, $18 is chai in Hebrew, aka life in English. So (for the folks who subscribe to this) a lot of Jews donate to things in multiples of $18. I donated $36, earlier, because I am cheap but interested in symbolism of this sort; effective allyship can be symbolic, too.)

Donated. Feeling grim. Thanks to you and julian for the link.

Indeed, I see their lowest suggested donation is exactly $36.

[julian]

Yeah, I did think about $18 just out of stubborn, but changed my mind.

Thanks for posting this. (Your journal thinks today is the 31st.)

[conuly]

Yup, it does!
