Help Dell Rebuild His Life Amidst Health Struggles
Donation protected
Dear friends, family, and compassionate supporters,
We are reaching out to you on behalf of our dearest friend Dell, who is currently facing a multitude of critical health complications, rendering him immobile and unable to work. Dell is in the hospital indefinitely, focused on receiving a proper diagnosis and working towards hopeful recovery. However, the road to recovery is long, and we find ourselves in a situation where we need your help to ensure Dell's basic needs are met during this challenging time.
Dell's inability to work has left him without a source of income, and the disability process, unfortunately, takes time – time that Dell doesn't have when it comes to covering his essential expenses. We are seeking your support to provide Dell with the financial assistance needed to sustain him for at least the next three months until disability benefits can kick in.
Here is a breakdown of Dell's immediate needs:
Monthly Rent: $1,150
PGE (Utilities): $70
Verizon (Phone): $180
Cable: $90
Food and supplies: $400
Medications: $75
Prime supplies: $100
Total Monthly Expenses: $2,065
Three Months Coverage: $6,200
In addition to these urgent expenses, we need to get Dell moved into an ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) apartment with wheelchair access. The move plus upfront costs are high, but we are hopeful we can get this sorted out in the next few months. Our goal is to ensure that when Dell is ready to return home, it is to a wheelchair-accessible and disability-friendly environment that supports his thriving life.
Additional Costs:
Wheelchair: $4,000
Movers: $3,500
Deposit, First and Last month rent for securing a new apartment: $7,500
Total Costs: $21,200
We understand that times are tough for everyone, and any contribution you can make will be immensely appreciated. Your support will ensure Dell has a roof over his head, access to essential utilities, and the necessary medical resources to aid in his recovery.
Let's rally together as a community to lift Dell during this challenging period. Your donations, no matter the size, will make a significant impact on Dell's journey to rebuilding his life. In addition to financial support, we ask that you send Dell your loving and supportive thoughts as he navigates through these difficult times.
Thank you for all being in loving support and a source of hope for Dell and for making a difference in his life. Your friendship, generosity and kindness are truly appreciated.
With heartfelt gratitude,
Molly, Liz, and the Support Team for Dell
