Alejandro Carrillo is currently recovering from surgery at a nursing facility. While the facility provides meals, it’s not quite enough to help him keep his weight up, which is crucial as he prepares for his next cancer surgery at the end of March. Alejandro is doing everything he can to stay strong, but he needs a little extra support to make sure he’s ready for what’s ahead.

Normally, Alejandro is the one helping others, always finding ways to support friends and family. But right now, being in the facility means he can’t do any of his usual side hustles or work to make ends meet. That’s why he’s reaching out for help—to cover the cost of extra food for the next month, so he can maintain his weight and be in the best shape possible for his upcoming surgery.

Alejandro knows it’s not easy to ask for help, but he’s grateful for any support his friends and community can offer. Every little bit will make a difference in his recovery and preparation for surgery. If you’re able to help, thank you in advance for your kindness and generosity. Here goes nothing—let’s help Alejandro get the strength he needs to keep fighting.
