Help George Higby cover medical expenses during lymphoma treatment

We’re launching this GoFundMe to support George Higby, known to antique & vintage enthusiasts as The Antique Nomad on YouTube.

For the past six years, George has generously shared his knowledge as an appraiser and reseller, offering guidance and fun to thousands of enthusiasts through his videos. He’s helped build a vibrant online and real-world community—and now he needs our help.

George has been diagnosed with a rare and chronic form of lymphoma. He faces six months of intensive treatment, and while the condition isn’t curable, it is treatable—and George is optimistic about returning to share the thrill of the hunt and the history of great finds with all of us again.

Why We’re Raising Funds

George is facing:

— Significant out-of-pocket medical expenses

— A pause in his work as an appraiser, vendor, and content creator

— Lost income from antique shows, appraisal fairs, and online activity

Our goal is to raise at least $50,000 to help offset medical costs and provide financial support while George focuses on healing.

Whether you’ve learned from George, laughed with him, or simply love antiques & vintage and want to support someone who’s given so much to the community, any contribution helps.

Let’s make sure The Antique Nomad has what he needs to return to the road, the shows, and the stories we all look forward to.

Thank you for your kindness and support,

Stephanie & Xeno (George's caregivers)
