For Immediate Assistance - Help Us Help Burlesque Legend Tiffany Carter

Burlesque Legend & Miss Nude Universe 1975, Tiffany Carter

BurlyCares would like to raise some immediate funds to assist burlesque legend Tiffany Carter. With the summer temperatures in Las Vegas, keeping our Legends cool is often a high priority.

Recently Tiffany has experienced an emergency with her air conditioning unit and is in immediate need to replace the unit as soon as possible. Tiffany’s health and safety are at risk with the Las Vegas heat without getting this unit fixed as soon as possible.

Thankfully, BurlyCares has been in contact with an AC repair in Las Vegas that will work with us to help repair her AC unit, but we will need to raise an immediate $2000 to start the repair process.

Please help us help Tiffany! The entire repair will cost approximately $8000. BurlyCares has set an immediate goal to raise $2000 and a total goal to raise $8000.

Help ‘The Little Mermaid of Burlesque’ Mickey Mae


Burlesque Legend Mickey Mae

Burlesque Legend Mickey Mae Faerch is in need of our help. Years ago, Mickey underwent a mastectomy with reconstruction. Recently, one of her reconstructed implants ruptured, causing pain, discomfort, emotional distress and has left her vulnerable to systemic infection. After consulting with her doctor, it’s clear that she needs to have the implants removed and her breast reconstructed as soon as possible to protect her health and well-being.

Unfortunately, the cost of the procedure, along with time off work and medical follow-ups, is overwhelming, and not covered by insurance.

Mickey is asking for help to raise funds for the costs of the surgery, post-operative care, and the essentials needed to recover safely and fully. Any amount, big or small, will help Mickey greatly.

We would like to set a fundraising goal of $5000.00 for Mickey.

Mickey thanks everyone so much for their support during this unexpected and difficult time. She is so grateful for every bit of love and support anyone can give.
