    2: A Discussion with Thapi Semenya

    Thapi (she/her) and Zoe (she/they) are back with Episode 2 to talk about crowdfunding, the problems with diabetes nonprofits, inaccessible technology, and the similarities between South Africa and the US.  Thapi is collecting funds to insure 16 diabetics in a rural part of Polokwane, Limpopo continue to get the insulin and supplies they need. These diabetics are unable to access clinics and many insulins are out of stock in their area. Shipping takes months at a time and is not an option for obtaining insulin. Thapi is asking for $300 each month to purchase NovoRapid, Lantus, syringes, and testing supplies. You can send funds to Thapi on PayPal: paypal.me/thapisemenya Thapi's Social Media: Twitter & Instagram You can go to MutualAidDiabetes.com to request help obtaining insulin and supplies, request crowdfunding, learn more about MAD, donate, or subscribe to our Patreon!
