My wife Janet and I, Alan, are reaching out for your help during a difficult time. Many of you know me as the host of Pure Pop Radio, a show I broadcast for 25 years, and as a reviewer for the Pure Pop website. For those who are less familiar, you can learn more about me at http://purepopradio.com. We’ve always tried to bring joy and music to our community, but now we find ourselves in need of support.

A combination of ongoing health issues, mostly for me, and little incoming money have put us in a serious situation. Janet has been searching for a job for almost a year after being let go from her last position after 14 years due to budget cuts. She continues to search for a new job every day. We don't have a car and rely on Ubers for transportation, which adds to our expenses. With my health challenges, including psoriatic arthritis and neuropathy, and mounting medical expenses, we are struggling to pay our upcoming July rent, bills, medical expenses, and living costs.

The funds raised through this campaign will help us cover our rent in July and the coming months, as well as pay for living, medical, and transportation expenses. We are asking for any monies you can contribute to our cause. Your support with donations will allow us to get past our financial strain and pay my doctors and insurance costs for my treatments. We are deeply grateful for any help you can provide, and your kindness will make a real difference in our lives.
