Abundant Life for Charity Benjamin Ritscher

Donation protected

All who know Charity know that she is a giver, a healer, a person whose life enriches all of us around her. Now it is our turn! As Charity works to heal from stage 4 breast cancer, which she just learned has spread to her bones and lungs, she needs our help and support Right Now!

This week Charity leaves for a 3 week stay at the Hippocrates Institute in Florida, a holistic healing center that helps people activate their body’s natural healing capabilities. The Comprehensive Cancer Wellness Program  costs approximately $20,000.  Her continued healing, upon returning home to Massachusetts, will require fiscal support for her and her family. Consequently, we are aiming for at least $30K for the next couple months of care.

Help support Charity to get well and be the mother to her precious Juniper, who she longed for all her life. Let’s hold Charity, her husband Marty, and their sweet child by relieving the financial concern so they can focus on what matters most: caring for Charity through this process.

If you use this website to offer support using your debit or credit card, the payment page will ask for a Gofundme tip, saying they have a 0% organizer's fee. This means campaign set-up is free but transaction processing is 2.9%. To avoid the Tip, which is configured at a 12.5% default rate, click the dropdown box that says 12.5%, select Other, and type in $0. Confirm the tip amount in the top right calculations before you hit Continue.

Thanks!
