Help Bring dignity back to Wilbert So He Can Be Cared for


Wilbert Garrett is an elderly man who should be spending his days in peace and comfort—but instead, he is living in heartbreaking conditions no one deserves.

Wilbert lives alone in an apartment that has become severely infested with bed bugs. The infestation has taken over everything—his bed, his furniture, his clothing—leaving him with almost nothing that is safe or usable. Imagine not having a clean place to sleep, not having clothes you can wear comfortably, and facing each day in an environment that feels impossible to escape.

At his age, this is more than just an inconvenience—it’s a crisis.

On top of these conditions, Wilbert is struggling to get to and from his medical appointments, making it even harder for him to take care of his health.

His daughter wants to bring him home to North Carolina so she can care for him properly, keep him safe, and give him the dignity and support he deserves—but she cannot do it alone.

We are raising funds to help:

* Replace all essential items lost to the infestation (bed, furniture, clothing)
* Provide food and basic daily necessities
* Cover transportation to and from medical appointments
* Help with moving expenses to relocate Wilbert from Tennessee to North Carolina

This is about more than just money—it’s about giving Wilbert a second chance at comfort, safety, and being surrounded by family who loves him.

No one should have to live like this, especially not in their later years.

Every donation, no matter how small, brings Wilbert one step closer to a clean bed, a safe home, and the care he truly needs.

If you’re unable to give, please consider sharing his story. Your support could change his life.

Thank you for your compassion and generosity.
