COVID relief grants available for Oregon S*x workers

[Deleted User 1616]

the Portland chapter of the Haymarket Pole Collective, was recently awarded nearly $600,000 in a COVID-relief grant from the Oregon Health Authority. The organization is now seeking applications from S*x workers who are Black and/or Indigenous, are transgender, live with a minor dependent at their home or are experiencing homelessness.

“[S*x workers] are suffering right now, and they don’t have anywhere to turn,” PDX Stripper Strike Founder Cat Hollis said. “We’re providing educational grants, professional development grants, and direct aid—rent support, food, and hygiene supplies—to S*x workers most impacted by prejudice and COVID. Organizations like ours are the only things keeping S*x workers from falling through the cracks.”

Applications will remain open until November 15 or until funding is depleted. Applications can be found online in English and in Spanish. For more information, visit the Haymarket Pole Collective website.

"Most strip club dancers are contractors, not employees, and aren’t eligible for traditional unemployment benefits. Clubs have taken a hit during the pandemic, and Hollis said there’s more competition for digital S*x work as people who hadn’t previously worked in adult entertainment tried their luck online."

Please get a hobby. Or go back to the country of your ancestors. Since you want everyone to be the same.

"get a hobby" is your every reply when you're sitting on your ass on this site and rarely if ever posting yourself. never actually contributing to the topic. how about you get a hobby? put down the chips and soda, maybe get a job too. put me on foe if you dont like it because youre not my boss.

my ancestors are all shades of European and some native American. I will make you a deal, you get me citizenship and pay for my plane ticket and I will gladly go live by the French Riveria so long as all foreign invaders leave MY 3/4 NATIVE LANDS OF EUROPE. you better arrange that too or STFU.

Yup, between the organization’s name and info/photos on the website they seem stripper-focused while being inclusive of other S*x workers.
