Please help me help my friend.

I'm asking my friends to see if there's any way you can spare a few dollars and help me to help a very good friend of mine. 
His name is Lesley Judge.  He was a neighbor of mine and we became good friends. 
He knows nothing of this.  I feel he's like me,  too proud to ask for help. 
So, I'm stepping up to do the asking for him because I know he'd do the same for me. 
He's a mason,  his brother along with him ran a bricking/stonework business. That business has since fallen due to some deaths in the family. 
Lesley just recently watched cancer take his twin brother.  That same brother just watched a serious illness take his wife just the year before. 
That being said,  Lesley suffered a devastating accident to his leg resulting in 4 surgeries and will probably never regain full use of it.  On top of that, the hospital discovered he's diabetic.  A major infection has set in and he is on some serious antibiotics. 
I've never done anything like this before but I'm asking a few of my friends to share this. Not only that and I know times are tough, especially now. But if there's something you can do, a few dollars to spare... anything. It will go a long way to helping out my friend. 
This guy would give the shirt off his back to anyone needing help.  He's a generous, God fearing and loving and caring man. 
Please help me help my friend. 

Thank you for your time and generosity.
