Binc provided urgent rent and utility payment assistance after a month-long bout of COVID put me in a deep financial hole.

Thank you Binc with a special thanks to the people who listened patiently and acted to help promptly.

Because of you, I received gender-affirming surgery this year, which has changed my life. Thank you for everything you do to improve the lives of booksellers everywhere.
