Help Bring Chef Rich Home for Life-Saving Medical Care
For those who know Rich Curry, you know his heart is as big as the meals he’s cooked. A professional chef for over 40 years, Rich dedicated his life to serving others — from busy kitchens to private events — always taking pride in creating food that brought people together. After decades of hard work, he retired at 62, moving to the Philippines to enjoy a simpler, peaceful life he had truly earned.
But today, Rich needs our help.
Recently, Rich suffered a severe stroke that left him in a difficult situation — far from home, with limited access to the medical care he urgently needs. His savings have run out, and the healthcare resources where he lives simply can’t provide the rehabilitation and ongoing treatment necessary for him to recover. He’s fighting every day to regain strength, but without proper medical support, his condition could worsen.
The goal of this fundraiser is to bring Rich home to the United States, where he can receive the specialized medical attention and rehabilitation services he deserves. The funds raised will go toward:
- Medical evaluation and travel clearance
- Airline and transportation costs for Rich’s return home
- Initial medical treatment and rehabilitation care upon arrival
- Basic living expenses as he gets reestablished in the U.S.
Rich has spent his life feeding others — now it’s our turn to help nourish his hope. Every contribution, no matter the size, brings him one step closer to getting home safely and receiving the care that could save his life. If you know Rich personally, you know how much he’s given to others through food, friendship, and kindness.
Please donate what you can, share his story, and help bring Chef Rich home.
From the bottom of our hearts — thank you for supporting a wonderful man in his time of need.
