The gap between crisis and okay.

Four things this will never do

Gate a crisis resource behind a signup, a paywall, or a partnership.

Sell, share, or broker anyone's personal data.

Disparage therapy or medication, in any framing.

Make anyone's access to help conditional on giving us money.

That is not a negotiating position. It is the point.

What already exists, free to anyone

Ten care packs for the worst hours, each one downloadable and usable offline. Five guides written for the waiting itself, for the weeks between reaching out and being seen. Twenty-one body lessons. A crisis directory of twenty-three organizations across twelve countries. An archive of 6,374 rituals. Nine hundred more in a temple that opens with no account and works with no signal. All of it in six languages besides English, crisis lines included.

No account is required for any of it. None of it is a trial. Nothing that is free today moves behind a paywall later.

What it costs to keep running

One hundred and forty six dollars a month.

That is the whole bill. Six live sites, the database underneath them, the archive, the email that carries it, the two registered entities. It is a small number because it was built to be one, by one person, without investors and without staff.

Thirteen people at twelve dollars a month covers all of it. Around a hundred and fourteen covers the rest of it, meaning the person building this can keep doing so without stopping to take other work. Those are the only two numbers that matter here, and neither has been reached.

How you can check any of this

Promises are cheap and we have no track record to point at, so here is the machinery instead.

There is no paywall to remove. The archive is readable by anyone at the database itself, signed in or not, and the care packs are ordinary files on a server. No gate was ever built, which is why none can be quietly added later.

Nothing here watches you. No advertising, no third-party trackers, no analytics company. What little we count is our own, uses no cookies, honors Do Not Track, and can be switched off for good on any device.

Every crisis listing carries its own receipt. Each one stores the date it was last checked and a link to the official source it was checked against. A scheduled job looks for dead links and stale entries and reports them. It is not allowed to edit anything, because a wrong number on that page is worse than no number at all.

Support cannot turn into access. Not as a policy, which could change, but as a rule written into the database itself: the archive stays readable by everyone regardless of who has paid.

There is nowhere for money to hide. One person, no staff, no investors, no office, and a bill you just read in full.

And what it pays for next

The Blueprint is public and it is not modest: four rings, from one person's worst night outward to community, to housing, to grief infrastructure after disasters, to elder care and reentry. The inner ring exists. Almost none of the rest does. Money is the difference between a plan and a thing a person can actually reach.

Keeping is patronage rather than access, and it buys you nothing that anyone else is denied. The three circles start at twelve dollars a month and stop whenever you say.

The quarter that leaves

Twenty five percent of revenue, after the direct costs of making and delivering the work, is pledged onward. Direct costs means printing, shipping, and payment processing, and nothing else hides inside that phrase. What leaves goes to organizations working in veterans' mental health and in care for people who cannot afford it.

Nothing has left yet, because nothing has come in yet. The Open Ledger is posted publicly and currently reads zero dollars given and zero keepers, and it will keep reading that until the month it does not. A ledger that only shows the months worth showing is not a ledger.

Before you decide anything

Infinitum Cor is a Minnesota LLC and not a registered charity. What you give is patronage of this work, and it is not a tax-deductible donation. We would rather you read that here than discover it later.

Or just come in

Joining costs nothing, and it is the ordinary way in.

One link arrives, and a welcome that shows you where everything is. It gives you a name by the fire in the Commons and a shelf to keep what you find. Nobody is counted, and nobody is billed.
