👕 MATSA Awareness Gear Order Update...

📌 If you placed an order, this posts for you! And be sure to check your email for your personal Order Update & Info.

🫶🏼 For those who placed orders, our shipment FINALLY arrived, earlier this week, only for us to discover the placement of the art on BOTH design styles/shirts & colors WRONG. 🥹
After some back & forth w/ the company, re: expected arrival & actual arrival as well as the ISSUES w/ our order, theyve agreed to make it right, correct the mistakes & ship out our NEW Order ASAP.
They have assured us that the NEW arrival time for our replacement order will be the 1st week of January.

This of course, is w/ RUSH delivery (during the holidays) which they insisted upon & we DEMANDED anyway, given the issues we've had.

We realize that a few folks ordered shirts for Holiday gifts & this creates an issue w/ that. And we could NOT be more sorry.

Again, for anyone who has placed an order, please be sure to watch for your personal order update & info.

We GREATLY appreciate your support & definitely your patience as we navigate this, our FIRST round of Awareness Gear sales. And we will keep everyone informed w/ any updates or info as we await our corrected & RAD Methadone Reform Gear!

If you have any questions, please dont hesitate to reach out through messenger or email us @ matsa.livefree@gmail.com





✨️ If you ordered MATSA Awareness Gear via our 1st round of designs, this one's for YOU!
Shipment is set to early this coming week which means orders will be shipped out by the weeks end!!!!!
We cannot WAIT to see folks rockin our Awareness Gear! Designed to fight stigma, misinformation & create opportunity for dialogue, education & beyond!
And let's be honest...they're pretty f***n rad for a lot of reasons!

We'll be sure to share pics of folks rockin our FIRST EVER MATSA Awareness Gear Designs.
And if you didnt get your purchase in this time, dont worry!

We'll hv these designs for sale, and we also have a VERY SPECIAL design we're launching on early 2026!

Thank you to those who have made purchases. We cant wait to see you

❄️ Latest Fundraiser Update - SO EMERGENT. We still NEED $140 ASAP

As it stands we are still working to raise $140 (ASAP) by tomorrow December 17 no later than 1100a to help to ensure Crystin can access her methadone & pick up a weeks worth of take-homes.
She travels approximately 1.5 hours to her clinic, which makes daily dosing impossible.
Shes lost her insurance & has been able to cover the fees for the last 2 weeks, all the while trying to find employment, having just started methadone 5 months ago, living in a boarding house, and staying the journey trying to bring her kiddos home.

She NEEDS our help.

Originally our goal was to raise the funds for her to get to & from the clinic TODAY by 1130a. Unfortunately, we fell short.

But we arent giving up.

Her NEED amnt has increased a bit bc now, she needs funds to travel bc tomorrow she doesnt have a ride. Today she did.

We know that $140 is a lot of money. But we also know that our community takes care of one another. And so, however long it takes, we are gonna scrape together every $1 we can, share our request far & wide, and we ask that if youre able, you do the same.

And remember that EVERY SINGLE $1 helps. And every share is a possible donation!

This momma desperately needs our help. She has no where else to turn. And MANY of us know theres few things worse than having no support system.

We also wanna say thank you to whoever in our community referred Cristyn to MATSA. That means so much to us!

AND we are gonna do all we can to help.

Harm reduction saves lives. Period.
But harm prevention? That requires accountability, truth and power shifts.

At the 2025 Addiction Medicine Conference in Pittsburgh, Executive Director Tracie Gardner asked the question we should all be sitting with:

How do we move from harm reduction to harm prevention?

By naming the harm.
By understanding how systems create it.
By centering the people most impacted — not the institutions that caused it.

What systems need to change for prevention to actually mean something where you live?

❄️❤️‍🩹 Our End of 2025 Fundraiser kicks off w/ 2 Extremely URGENT NEEDS for 2 of our folks. Help us raise $235 ASAP, so 2 of our folks can access their methadone.

✨️ $130 - by 1130a 2maro December 16.
Crystin is in URGENT NEED of Mutual aid funds to access her methadone for this week. On methadone for the last 5 months, doing so well & currently fighting to bring her babies home, shes in URGENT needs our help. Shes lost her insurance & is trying to navigate the systems, but knows that without her medication, its almost impossible to stay the course. Shes got $21 currently, but needs $105 more to ensure she has her medication. As someone who is without additional support or options, she was referred to us & so here we are.
We know time is short but we NEED to help this momma & we are HOPEFUL!

✨️ $130 - by 900a 2maro December 16
Janna is in URGENT NEED of $130 by 900a tomorrow to cover a past due balance at her clinic. After losing her Medicaid shes struggled to pay as a cash patient & is hoping to avoid being FEETOXED (financially discharged). If she cannot pay at least the past due balance by tomorrow, shes set to begin financially tapering. The urgency is EMERGENT.

Our fund is depleted with the increased needs.
And we are determined to do ALL we can to meet the current needs through 2025.

But we cant do it without your help.

✨️ As it stands…this will not only be our FINAL Fundraiser for 2025, it will be our final fundraiser. After so much consideration & discussion, and the heaviest of hearts, we have come to a place where we have to pause our program as of January 1, 2026.

This original fundraiser post gives insight into our decision & we will be sharing more via our FB Page.

But for the remainder of 2025, we will work to raise the funds to offer all of the we possibly can.

Right now, these are our most URGENT Mutual Aid Needs. And as any additional needs come in throughout 2025 we will do all we can to help our folks.

So if you've been hoping to donate, if you're able, now is the time.

For those who have supported our efforts with D4D these past few years…THANK YOU! Be sure to check out the highlight infographic in the End of 2025 Fundraiser video and/or graphics!

And remember, every $1 counts & EVERY SHARE is a potential donation.

In Solidarity.

‼️❤️‍🩹 Help us raise $160 ASAP to cover 2 Emergent Mutual Aid NEEDS for December.

✨️ Peyton needs $110 to cover their past due balance, STOP financial taper & assure continued access to their methadone after losing their medicaid. Every $1 helps, every share is a potential donation. Its hard enough to navigate these systems & losing access to their methadone only stands to make this critical times in their life far more dangerous. They NEED our support & we need our community to help us make this happen.

✨️ Kayla needs $50 to travel to her clinic in rural TN & back home to rural Arkansas. Shes struggled to get to the clinic from her home in rural Arkansas where public transpo is not an option. Our hope is that FINALLY after quite an advocacy journey, her 2 weeks of takehomes will be reinstated 2maro. But she needs our help to get there! Add as a pregnant & parenting person on methadone, access to her medicineis even more important than ever.

As we wind down 2025, we are doing all we can to help folks w/ & we cant do it without our community.

If you can help by donating and/or sharing its greatly appreciated!
