Hello my name is Rob Renfro I'm a lifelong creative person and advocate for those less fortunate. Now I'm in a race against time as a rare illness threatens to silence my voice.
I've been diagnosed with multiple degenerative and neurological conditions including Early Onset Alzheimer's and multiple brain tumors.
MY MISSION NOW IS SIMPLE BUT URGENT:
Finish the creative work I’ve started, give back what I still can, and leave behind a legacy that might inspire others before the silence takes over.
WHY I’M ASKING FOR YOUR HELP
I'm seeking to raise $90,000 because I will require treatment and medication for the remainder of my life to keep the Alzheimer's from worsening. Here are some ways your donations help.
$50 Helps purchase much needed medications and supplements
$100 Helps purchase time to record my anthology
$300 Helps buy software for scriptwriting
$500 Helps purchase in home equipment for laser and other therapies
$1000 Helps purchase major treatments and therapies not covered by insurance
$1500 Helps me publish my novel or graphic novel
Your support will help me:
CONTINUE CREATING:
Publish a graphic novel, record an anthology covering my 30 years in the music business. Finish a deeply personal book honoring my mother’s battle with cancer.
Finalize multiple scripts and screenplays I’ve conceptualized,
Secure essential software for music and script production
MANAGE MY HEALTH
Afford ongoing treatment and monitoring of my neurological and spinal conditions.
Pay for life-saving medications, including therapies and purchase of home equipment.
Undergo necessary dental surgery for health and quality of life
SHARE MY EXPERIENCES
Offered free resources and emotional support, including a fundraising how-to guide I created
Distributed the anti–date rape song I co-wrote with Ken Veenstra and had performed by Rose Valdez, which was shared with college radio stations across the country to raise awareness, not profit
Tell the stories of two strangers I helped talk down from suicide, simply by being present, listening, and connecting them to the care they needed
A LIFE OF GIVING, NOW ASKING
I’ve never been afraid to give, even when I had little. I’ve organized fundraisers for people I didn’t know, hosted events, supported other artists, and answered calls for help without hesitation.
Now, for the first time, I’m asking the world to help me tell my story before I lose the ability to do so.
WHAT YOU’RE SUPPORTING
You’re not just helping me afford treatments or publish stories.
You’re helping a man preserve his identity before a disease takes it away.
You’re helping me give back while I still can.
You’re saying, "Your story matters," and that means everything.
Every donation, every share every act of support is needed urgently! Help me finish my story before time and illness close the curtain on me forever.
With deep gratitude,
Rob
