EMERGENCY RELIEF FOR TAMARA, DAYNA, AND SAMUEL

Donation protected
Yesterday, November 19th, 2018, around 1500, three loving, caring, healing, protecting, selfless human beings were tragically killed in their respective lines of duty.

Dr. Tamara O’Neal, on her way to work as an Emergency Medicine Physician, was gunned down in the parking lot.

Ms. Dayna Less, working as a resident Pharmacy Technician, was killed stepping off an elevator.

Ofc. Samuel Jimenez, bravely responding to the scene, was shot and killed.

There is never a time when the theft of innocent life is ok, though it is exacerbated significantly at a time of year in which the institutions of family and love are especially prevalent.

The goal of this gofundme is to raise money for these three beautiful individuals, as well as the many related victims they leave behind. Whether these funds can help with final expenses, or even meals in the coming weeks, anything is appreciated.

If you can only give positive thoughts, or prayers, no problem. If, however, you are able to give even a few dollars, it would be immensely appreciated. All proceeds will go to the three people named above, or their next of kin. The goal is to get each of these folks $10,000.

At the advice and request of gofundme, I have been asked to detail the following items:

1. I was not lucky enough to know either of the three victims personally, though as an EMT working in Chicago, I have worked very closely and regularly with the fine people of Mercy Hospital. It is heartbreaking to know that coworkers of these colleagues perished innocently while in the line of work of helping people.

2. I have already contacted numerous individuals within the hospital staff and the Chicago Police Department in order to determine the best plan to get every penny this campaign raises, upon its successful completion, to the appropriate members of the victims' families. Updates will be detailed in the final update accordingly.

3. I am working directly with gofundme administration to make sure that any and all funds raised after successful completion of the campaign are appropriately and responsibly allocated.

***MR. LESS, DAYNA'S FATHER, HAS REACHED OUT TO ME AND ASKED THAT DONATIONS TO BENEFIT THE LESS FAMILY BE MADE THROUGH THE MERCY FOUNDATION - HTTPS://DONATE.MERCYFOUNDATIONCHICAGO.ORG/VICTIMSFUND***

Thank you all.
