Hello, my name is Vishal Thapar, and I'm reaching out to you on behalf of someone very important to my team. I'm the founder of Boston Chai Party (local online chai store based in Boston), and I work with incredibly talented people who have become like family to me. Today, I'm here to ask for your help for Faye Carmine, one of my key team members whose father is fighting for his life.
Faye works as our Shopify migration specialist, and over the months we've worked together, she has become much more than just a contractor – she's become a trusted colleague and friend. When I learned about her father's medical emergency, I knew I had to step in and help however I could.
Her father, Anecito Corpuz, is a 69-year-old man who suffered a serious heart condition that required immediate emergency surgery at the Philippine Heart Center in Quezon City on June 21st, 2025. What happened was sudden and terrifying for Faye and her family.
Thanks to the skilled medical team, the surgery was successful, but Anecito now faces a long recovery process with ongoing medical care. I'm raising $20,000 to help cover his mounting medical bills because I believe we should take care of the people who work alongside us, especially during their most difficult moments.
The costs have been overwhelming for Faye's family – from the emergency surgery and ICU stay to ongoing treatments, medications, and follow-up care. As you can see from the hospital bill, the expenses have already exceeded 1 million pesos (approximately $18,000 USD), with more costs ahead as he continues his recovery.
While we're incredibly grateful that Anecito is alive and recovering, the financial burden has been crushing for their family. They've exhausted their savings, and I want to help ensure he gets the best possible care without the added stress of financial worry.
As a gesture of support for Faye, who recently migrated our site to Shopify, 100% of the sales made on BostonChaiParty.Com will be donated to this cause until we meet our goal. As a thank you for your purchase on our site, I'll also include free shipping on all orders placed on bostonchaiparty.com starting today if you use the coupon code "FAYE".
How the Funds Will Be Used
Every dollar donated will go directly toward Anecito's medical care and recovery.
Here's exactly how your contributions will help:
Immediate Medical Expenses ($18,000)
- Emergency heart surgery and ICU care already completed
- Hospital fees, medications, and ongoing treatments
- Follow-up appointments and cardiac rehabilitation
- Medical equipment and supplies needed for home care
Ongoing Care Support ($2,000)
- Transportation costs for medical appointments
- Prescription medications during recovery
- Home nursing care if needed
- Emergency medical fund for any complications
The reality is that Faye and her father are facing this alone. There are no siblings to share the burden, no other parent to help with costs or care. Faye is her father's sole caregiver and provider, which puts her in an incredibly difficult position.
These funds will give Faye the breathing room she desperately needs to:
- Focus on her father's recovery without the crushing worry of unpaid medical bills
- Continue working to put food on the table and maintain their basic living expenses
- Ensure her father gets the quality care he needs during this critical recovery period
Without this support, Faye faces an impossible choice between staying home to care for her father or working to pay the bills. No one should have to make that choice, especially not someone who has worked hard all their life to get this point in their life where they were finally able to take care of their aging parents.
Your donation isn't just covering medical bills – it's giving a devoted daughter the chance to save her father's life while still being able to support them both.
Words are usually not enough in these situations so I'm ending this appeal with "Thank you, your help truly matters"
