Fundraiser for Jerome and Char Jabonete family

Hi, my name is Debbie, and I'm raising funds for the Jerome and Char Jabonete family.

In March 2020, Char Jabonete with her family arrived in the United States to begin working at Sakakawea Medical Center as a Medical Technologist. They left the Philippines, bringing only those items that would fit in their luggage. Their arrival occurred just as the Covid pandemic began. Despite the mandated quarantine period and being in a new country, they were excited to be here with the hope of a new and exciting life.

In November of that same year, Jerome was diagnosed with brain cancer, Grade 4 astrocytoma, requiring intensive treatments and testing. As a result, they have made multiple trips to Rochester and Bismarck.

They welcomed a new little boy to their family in August this year. While this should be a wonderful time in their lives, the recent decline in Jerome's health has made it a challenge. Char is trying to balance life with a new baby, a teenager and now Jerome, who is in hospice care.

Char is working diligently to arrange extended family care to arrive in the United States within the next few months. Until that time, friends and co-workers are assisting where they can.

If you could take a moment and donate to help alleviate the financial burden of this family, it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, and God Bless you.
