Any idea how we can add to his canteen fund?
After he is arraigned (first appearance before a judge) AND assuming bail is set in an amount he cannot pay AND that he is held in Rikers (HUGE safety concerns) you can look him up here and then send money for commissary and sometimes pay bail.

I believe you must provide personally identifying information to send money/pay. There is no guarantee that the City won’t try to find a way to seize money sent.
Edit: typo
Yeah, Rikers isn’t secure enough to keep out a corpo hitman, even if all the prisoners are on his side.
Why would they want to off this kid.
We all know why he did this, it isn’t a secret that insurance companies are paying evil. If anything killing him now will rally more people to his cause.
They will just re-write history as they did with Guy Fawkes and have us singing songs as though he was a bad guy and not someone who wanted to rock the establishment.
So that he can't be tried and found non-guilty. So that he wouldn't spread dangerous ideas. So that he pays for his transgressions.
I don't know what could be their reasoning, but I would expect them wanting to off him behind the scenes rather than await for the trial results.
Aaaand book marked. If there is no justice then at least he will never go a day without his favorite ramen.
