Hi, my name is Marlin Minks, and I’m reaching out from a deeply personal place.

Over the last three months, I’ve faced unexpected and life-threatening health challenges. My heart nearly gave out twice, spiking to a dangerous 215 bpm. I was diagnosed with Supraventricular Tachycardia (SVT) a serious heart rhythm condition that’s turned my life upside down.

While I’m thankful to be on the path to recovery, the reality is that the medical costs, hospital stays, prescriptions, and follow-up care have become overwhelming.

As a creative, asking for help doesn’t come easy. But I’ve learned healing isn’t something you do alone. So I’m turning to my community, my supporters, and those who believe in the power of storytelling and second chances.

What Your Support Will Help With

I’m raising $50,000 to cover:

    •    Medical bills (past and upcoming)

    •    Ongoing treatments, prescriptions, and follow-ups

    •    Wellness tools and recovery resources to help me return to full strength

Even $1 from each supporter would make a world of difference. Every single contribution no matter the amount helps move me closer to healing.

This isn’t just about medical bills. It’s about helping me reclaim my health so I can get back to doing what I love: creating meaningful, purpose driven art that uplifts and inspires.

With Deep Gratitude

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for reading, for caring, and for standing with me. Whether you’re a friend, fellow creative, or someone who believes in my vision, I see you, and I’m truly grateful.

With love and resilience,

Marlin Minks
