Help Nicole Julien Get Back on Her Feet

This is a fundraiser for Nicole Julien - our coworker and more importantly, our FRIEND.

As many of you know, Nicole has had a rough go of it for a while now. Most recently, she has unexpectedly been in the hospital for an extended period of time. She has exhausted her PTO and her Short Term Disability, and she still isn't able to come back to work.

Many of you have asked how you could help and indicated that you'd be willing to make donations, so I wanted to start this page so those of you who want to and who are able to, can make a donation to help Nicole get back on her feet.

To be clear, Nicole has not asked for ANYTHING through all of this. But, just as I know she would help any of us out if the situation was reversed, I wanted to find a way to help her and show her how much she means to her friends and how loved she is. I set the goal at $1,000 because that's what the website recommended, but by no means do I want anyone to feel pressured to make a large donation. Anything you can give is much appreciated. When I cut this off, I'll send an email update to all interested with the total amount raised for her.

If you do not feel comfortable donating, but still want to send a gift, she has mentioned gift cards - try go get ones that can get sent electronically. I've already sent her $300 in Door Dash gift cards, but feel free to send more, or grocery store cards - she shops at Giant. She also had a subscription to Audible at one point, so that may be another idea. Please contact me if you need her email address for gift cards - Go Fund Me will not let me publish an email address in the fundraiser post.

Thanks to everyone who has reached out to see how they could help. Nicole has really been touched by all the support she's received.
