Donate to Help Lavy Escape an Abusive Living Situation, organized by Summer Smith

Lavy is well known for being a kind hearted, creatively driven and someone who goes above and beyond to help people learning Blender, Unity, and all things VR driven. He has helped countless people in the years he has played VRChat, and now him and his partner really need your help. For anyone who has been within the VRC DJ community, the name VioletLavy has been spread around. From working on scripts/funneling his creativity for new maps and DJ Events, to performing in front of crowds– surrounded by people who enjoy creating, music, and passion. However, there have been some things in life that are making it impossible to do these things. Lavy is, unfortunately, stuck 5,000+ miles away from their partner, Skwee– and stuck in an unsafe environment with his family. His mother, who has gone no contact, is driving his Father and himself to the ground financially due to a daunting divorce process where she is taking everything financially from them both. Legally, she has taken their house, and is charging a high civil court cost that they cannot afford, and has withheld legal documents belonging to Lavy that forces him to pay hundreds of dollars out of pocket to reinstate said documents while they cannot afford a lawyer to counter any of this. Things such as his passport, birth certificate and social security has been withheld from him. In the heat of this divorce process, his father and external family has taken his stress out onto Lavy, lashing out onto him for very minor instances. Lavy, who makes a majority of his income online, has been forced to cancel multiple contracts that would ensure his rent, food, and cost of living due to this. He has been unable to work with people who have sabotaged him, interrupting his living space, and constantly moving place to place due to his mother’s influence. In order to try and make money, Lavy has learned thousands of hours of new digital skills, from managing avatars, custom scripting, modeling, event moderation, post processing work, polishing and more– yet it comes down to him being lowballed by contracts, or any friends who do help him expecting something in return–that he has no time to give back, and therefore has to reject the money. Lavy is unable to separate from his family due to the abuse, because they will always find where he lives and what he does. However, he has a very good chance of getting away from it all, by moving in with his partner Skwee in Nevada. He would be surrounded by an IRL support group who would take care of him. However, the cost of trying to move, on top of being lowballed by contracts and being unable to find work due to his living situations, has been proving impossible despite working himself into heavy burnout. This is where we really need help. The mental strain and burnout has been trapping him in his living spaces for over three years. We want to help Lavy move to America to be in a safer environment and away from an abusive one. This would cover the cost of current rent, groceries, the legal process of expediting a passport, safely transporting delicate equipment, plane tickets, moving fees, and ensuring 3 months of rent minimum. Lavy is well known for being a kind hearted, creatively driven and someone who goes above and beyond to help people learning Blender, Unity, and all things VR driven. He has helped countless people in the years he has played VRChat, and now he really needs your help. Read more
