Help Sam after Hit and Run

My name is Sam Rocha and on March 28th, 2025, I was hit by a car while crossing the street on a crosswalk in Chicago. It was a hit and run. It was reported to the police, but unfortunately, the driver has not been found.

The accident fractured my tibia and rendered me unable to walk for two months. With physical therapy, I project I should be able to walk fully without crutches by mid to late June and return to work by then. I was a barista and had to take leave of my job because I was unable to stand. During that time, I was denied unemployment because I am not able to work. I have applied to the Crime Victims Compensation Fund of Illinois, but that could take several months to be approved.

I am making this GoFundMe in order to help me cover monthly expenses while I cannot work, like rent. Any donation would mean the world to me. Thank you very much.

Love, Sam
