Help buy Emily a new knee

Donation protected


Hello fam and friends (and hey, maybe some cool - ass strangers),

We are asking for help (the good old fashion American way - AKA: crowdfunding) in funding a partial knee replacement for the one and only Emily Matthews. For years, shes charmed, cooked or blazed her way in to your lives - and this little nugget is in need of some assistance.

For the past 3 years she has received multiple surgeries in attempts to fix her knee, whilst living in chronic pain - but alas, we have arrived at our final option - A partial knee replacement (or robot knee - as her loving wife calls it).






At the ripe old age of 32 - this isn't a common reccomendation, but her condition has progressed rapildy and she finds walking to be difficult and hella painful. Her surgeon is wicked good and confident this procedure will get her walking (and hell, maybe even skipping around) in 6 months time.

The past surgeries have wiped out our savings and healthcare as it stands, doesn't provide much assistance (monitarily speaking).

We are asking for $8,000 in total.
This money covers
  • surgery
  • hospital fees
  • anesthesia
  • medications
  • MRI procedures

Your generosity will not go unnoticed! We will be sending handmade prints and cards to everyone who donates over $20 - and we will absolutely send so many good vibes your way. It's a mystery right now- but Em is hard at work screen printing and the results so far are fantastic.

**Make sure to send us your address so we can get these to you**

Thanks in advance - asking for help is never easy and times have been rough for everyone lately, so we greatly appreciate and and all help thrown our way.

-Chelsea (Che) Matthews
