Sam George, Owner and Head Chef at Cafe Rustika, was severely burned and is currently being treated at VCU Health.

Sam is facing an arduous and lengthy recovery.

Sam has been dishing up delicious dishes for Richmonders for decades, and at Rustika since 2007. Now he needs some help from all the folks he's been serving with a smile for all these years.

Any contribution you can make towards his recovery would be wonderful and greatly appreciated. Get well soon, Sam!
