Hello Everyone,

My name is Hank McCulley. I'm a musician, restaurant worker, and shipwright. Due to several severe health crises', I have been unable to work and have fallen into hard times. Just as I was beginning to recover, I was recently injured in a fire at my house. Due to my inability to work and with my exorbitant medical expenses, my car was recently repossessed.

Therefore, as difficult as it is to ask the world for help, I now must do so. I am trying to raise $6,000 for my current and coming month's expenses, ASAP. This will cover getting my car back, which is needed for everything from doctors' appointments to getting necessities and to work when I can work again; as well as my basic expenses for the next month, such as rent, medical, utilities, food, dog food, etc.

It is difficult for me to ask for help. I would much rather be the one to help others, as I have always tried to do whenever I can. Unfortunately, at this time in my life, I have no other choice. Without immediate assistance, I think my situation is going to get much more dire very quickly.

Anything anyone can or is willing to help with will go a long way. It doesn't have to be substantial. In my mind, $20 here and $15 there from my village of family and friends should get me to where I need to be.

Thank you in advance. I love you all,

Hank McCulley
