Struck By a Hit and Run Driver

Donation protected

At 5 in the morning, my mother's partner was struck by a SUV while riding his bicycle to work. He was in the bike lane, had several pieces of reflective gear on his bike and he was riding safely and legally.

When the SUV struck him, he flew several feet in the air with his bike, crashing after the impact of the fast moving vehicle. 

Instead of stopping or even calling the police to see if he was ok, the SUV sped off. 

Now, Shawn is traumatized, horribly wounded in the hospital, and now freshly in debt.

Shawn is legally blind and works for the Austin Lighthouse for the Blind. Now that he has been badly injured, it is unknown when he will be able to work again. Or where.

You all probably know the crippling debt hospital bills can get you in. My mom and Shawn are now facing this debt while also worrying about three children, college tuition, taxes and just putting food on the table. 

While we want nothing more than justice for Shawn,
While we truly appreciate your condolences, 
What we need is your support.



We understand that not everyone is in a position to donate, so in exchange for your donation you have the option to schedule one free Headshot photo shoot with Francesca Blue Photography (that's me)

Donations of 

$50 or more -- 2 Headshots, Retouched, High Resolution

$100 or more -- 5 Headshots or Portraits, Retouched, High Resolution, plus all of the original unedited files

$200 or more -- 10 Headshots or Portraits, Retouched, High Resolution, original files, PLUS the Option to make it a Family Portrait session 

After donating, visit  FrancescaBluePhoto.com/Contact.html  and put "Help Shawn Recover" in the subject line to get your FREE photo session.

(Portrait Sessions are optional. You don't have to sign up for one if you don't want to when you donate)

We understand money is tight, so anything means the world to us.

The money will go straight to his hospital bills. Shawn suffered several broken bones and a badly severed leg when he was thrown off the road by the hit and run. It's going to take a long time for Shawn and our family to recover.

So anything you donate now will be helping Shawn wake up to something a little brighter in the hospital. 

Please help Shawn reach a speedy and affordable recovery. Whether it's $1 or $100, we appreciate all you can give. You're donation will mean worlds to us. 

Sending SO SO SO much love and appreciation,

Serstin, Francesca and Chauncey Neely
