Hi, my name is Cynthia Roseberry, and I’m creating this fundraiser for my dear friend and neighbor, Joyce Cherry.

Joyce is a senior citizen who is legally blind, and yet she lives independently with extraordinary resilience. Her closest companion is her sweet cat, Tuffi — an indoor kitty who means the world to her.

Joyce is scheduled to have hip replacement surgery next week. During her recovery, she won't be able to care for Tuffi, who also requires medication and special attention.

We’re raising funds to help cover:

One week of boarding for Tuffi at a trusted facility

A veterinary check-up and prescription refill

A professional deep-cleaning of Joyce’s apartment before she returns home

Joyce has always managed on her own, but this time, she needs a little help from her community.

Any contribution you can make — no matter how small — will help ensure both Joyce and Tuffi are safe, healthy, and comfortable during this difficult time.

Thank you so much for your compassion and support!

With heartfelt thanks,

Cynthia
