Help James Overcome His Brutal Assault

Donation protected
Hey everyone,

I’m reaching out because my friend James really needs our help. On June 8th, 2024, after enjoying a Janet Jackson concert at the Forum in Inglewood, James was attacked by eight men while heading to his Uber. They robbed him, and when he tried to defend himself, they brutally assaulted him with a machete, breaking his arm and causing severe cuts.

Since then, James has been in the hospital, and his injuries are serious and at high risk of infection. He doesn’t have health insurance, so the medical bills are piling up fast. On top of that, he needs help with everyday expenses and replacing his stolen phone.

Despite everything, James is staying very positive. He's still a delight to talk to, and his comedic personality is very much intact. This whole situation has been incredibly tough on him, but he's determined to recover and move forward.

He doesn’t want to ask for money himself, so I’m starting this fundraiser to try and take at least the financial burden off his back. Any amount you can donate will go directly towards his medical bills, daily expenses, and getting him back on his feet.

Thank you so much for your generosity and for sharing this with others who might be able to help.
