Request Details
I don’t have private pharmacare coverage at the moment and I don’t qualify for the public drug benefit. 

I had my hormonal IUD placed in 2019 when I was covered and I need to get a new one in 2024. It is $410 and I don’t have access to that amount of money in one go without some form of mutual aid or assistance. I obviously do not have the funds for a child if I am struggling with $410 so I’m turning to HogAid to make sure I won’t fall pregnant at this time. 
$410.00 CAD

Expense policies
Each individual can request £100 twice in a sixth month period, a rough outline of what you need it for is useful but we do not need specifics. "Living expenses", "travel" or "meds" or whatever is fine. This policy is open to review in the future, depending on circumstances and funds. If you make a request you will not recieve the funds immediately, money is sent three times a week. If you need money and are not in the UK, it will take longer. 

Please try and keep your requests short, especially if requesting a grant, a lot of detail rather than the specifics of what you need can make it more confusing and require more time to set up a vote. 
In example, just put in something like: "I need X money because of a surprise bill" or "I need X money for an x-ray"
