Final Allocation of Undesignated Funds Gifted to Lead Safe Mama, LLC Through June 07, 2025

Published June 07, 2025 — Saturday
Funding Update
Final Draft Through June 7, 2025

Hello again, friends!

Over the past several months, Lead Safe Mama, LLC has received $7,599.69 in undesignated support from all combined sources (PayPal, GoFundMe, Venmo, Patreon, etc.) — including from our g eneral support GoFundMe campaign and our Patreon paid subscriber base.

Continuing our practice of using gifted funds to help cover the costs of testing and reporting on campaigns for products nominated by the Lead Safe Mama online community that have not yet fully funded, we have allocated all recently contributed undesignated funds as noted in the spreadsheet graphic below (there are two images below, one is a shareable social media graphic and the other is a larger format of the spreadsheet without additional annotations).

The graphic below is the final draft of our allocation of funds originally first posted in April 2025 (last month).
We will create a new spreadsheet for allocation of undesignated funds starting with any funds contributed after this post has been published (after June 7, 2025 – 4:00 p.m.)
There is a “roll over” amount of $84.69 noted in the spreadsheet below that will be applied to not-yet-funded campaigns in the next spreadsheet.
We anticipate this new spreadsheet will cover undesignated funds contributed from June 7, 2025 through September 30, 2025.
- This will include just under four months of contributions, with an anticipated minimum of $2,000 contributed via our Patreon subscriber base over that time frame.
Laboratory testing and reporting that still require funds to help us cover our costs include three salt products, a cassava flour product, two oat products, three toothpaste products from France, one toothpaste product from England, several English snack products, and more.
Any undesignated funds contributed after publishing of this article will likely support covering the costs of testing and reporting for the products noted above (in addition to some sunscreen products, depending on how the open campaigns for sunscreen testing close).

Thank you to everyone who contributed via our GoFundMe and thank you to our Patreon base for helping make this testing and reporting possible! If you are coming across this article sometime after June 7 and would like to see the latest update on our use of gifted funds this year, please click here.

If you would like to join the generous individuals who made all of this possible by also supporting the work of Lead Safe Mama, LLC with undesignated gifted funds (so we can apply money where it is needed most to help us get more lab reports published), please consider contributing at this link OR joining us on Patreon with a monthly gift, here.

We also accept contributions supporting this work via:

PayPal (TamaraRubin@mac.com),
Venmo (@TamaraERubin, 3182),
and Zelle (503-702-2708).

As Lead Safe Mama, LLC is not a 501(c)3 nonprofit, contributions are not tax-deductible, however, we do rely on undesignated contributions to help cover a portion of the costs for the work we do. This means your gifts are very much appreciated by everyone in the Lead Safe Mama community. Undesignated gifts are always used to help cover the costs incurred with expanding our database of publicly available scientific test results, helping people (around the world!) make science-based, informed decisions for their families.

The direct-to-consumer science that we provide is never behind a paywall of any kind.

Thank you!
