We are reaching out to our community to support Ben Schimmel, who unexpectedly underwent emergency brain surgery due to bacterial meningitis on June 26th. His journey has been challenging, with a prolonged admittance in the PICU and a three-week hospital stay at Fairfax Children's Hospital.

As the expenses begin to mount, we are reaching out to friends and family to help the Schimmel family with medical bills, rehabilitation costs, and other essential needs during this time. Every donation, big or small, makes a difference in his path to recovery.

Thank you for your support.
