New Donation Page Coming Soon!

Due to factors outside our control, we need  to create a new page for donations, and are currently working on it.

For the time being, you can make tax-deductible donations to Scarleteen securely via a PayPal account, debit or credit card through UN|HUSHED, our current fiscal sponsor (and we'll tell you more on that change soon!) here:

https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=5JGT9PVZ4SGFS

If you want to be filled in as to what's going on a little:

Tomorrow would usher in month 3 of a lack of service -- and without ever giving us any notice or even acknowledgement there were problems or changes until we contacted them weeks after the fact -- from Network for Good, the third-party charitable payment processor we've been clients of, in perfect standing, for 12 years.

We are not the only organization who have had or are currently having issues with them. Over at least the last week, they have had apparent technical issues that created problems for many others who use them for online donations.

We have been having these but also different  and additional issues with them since the start of the year. During this time, we have not seen any of our recurring donors payments run in our reports (we get conflicting information from them about if they have or have not) save one or two,  and new donors have been unable to make donations.

After a not-insubstanial amount of work to even find a way to speak with someone there, we were told our issue required us to change fiscal sponsors to fix it, and that that once we did, everything would go back to normal and recurring donors whose payments were not run would be. Despite the great time and labor, not to mention the questionable inconvenience of all of us involved, in doing that by 2/7, nothing has changed since. We continue to get little to no communication back from them, and when we do, it is often conflicting, obtuse or avoidant.

This has so far caused us to go without a portion of our budget and so is, as it likely is for any other organization having issues, leaving us in a precarious financial position. It clearly is time to seek out legal help. We're in the process of doing that. In the event you are or know a lawyer who this sounds like a great fit for, please drop us a line.

I do not think  that anyone's information or donations aren't safe and secure at Network for Good. However, please do what feels best for you. We are currently setting up with a new and additional online third-party processor now on top of having that direct link up there, and will email all of our existing recurring and current one-time donors with that information once we have it. - HC

Your PMDD Primer: A Necessary Guide to an Under Researched Disorder

Author:  Sara Traynor Other people had to have been struggling with this, right? There was no way I was the only one. But if that was true, then why didn’t I – or anyone else I knew, for that matter – know about it? Why had I wasted years of my life pushing people away, feeling miserable, and not even understanding why? I’m going to make sure that nobody else has to go through what I did. Ever since I got my period at age 12, my pre- menstrual symptoms have been intense. It was like clockwork: for about a week and a half every month, I couldn’t get out of bed. I couldn’t focus on the simplest tasks. Even the most minor inconveniences or disagreements could send me spiraling: my suddenly overwhelming anxiety made mountains out of molehills. And then, within the first couple days of my period, the cloud lifted. I could breathe again. At first, I thought this was normal. All the descriptions of PMS I could find described symptoms like the ones I was experiencing. Fati

Asexuality: Are You Aware?

It’s the last week of October and you know what that means! Time to talk about asexuality. Well—anytime is fine to talk about it, actually, but every year, Asexuality Awareness Week falls in late October (it runs from October 24 to 30 this year). This is a chance to learn more about what asexuality really is and how to support people who identify as asexual (or “ace”). I wanted to better understand asexuality as a sexual orientation . Yes, it’s considered a sexual orientation! Especially after my friend Cori*, 17, who identifies as asexual and aromantic, told me, “The general population doesn’t see asexuality the same way they see (other) LGBTQ + identities.” I wondered—why don’t people seem to talk about or understand asexuality as much as they might other orientations? What I Didn’t Know Prior to learning more about it, I thought asexuality just meant that a person had no sexual or romantic feelings. I didn’t realize that having romantic and sexual feelings are not the same thi
