If you've ever spent a night at Brendan's Towne Tavern, you know Joel. He's the friendly face at the door who always makes sure we're safe, welcomed, and having a good time.
Now, Joel and his family need our support. His daughter, Madison Finfinger, was born on February 1, 2022, and was diagnosed with Chiari Malformation Type 1, a serious condition where brain tissue presses into the spinal canal. At just two years old, Madison had to undergo a decompression brain surgery to relieve the pressure and give her the chance at a healthy childhood.
The recovery process is tough, and the financial burden is overwhelming. Hospital bills, follow-up appointments, and ongoing care add up quickly.
This GoFundMe is our way to give back. Joel has always looked out for us at Townie, and now it's our turn to look out for him and his family.
Every donation, big or small, will go directly toward Madison's medical expenses. If you can't donate, please share this page to help spread the word and show Joel and his family how much support they have.
Let's come together as a community to help Joel, Madison, and their family through this difficult time.
Thank you for your kindness and support.
