Help Raymond Peterson Get His New Heart

A Heart Transplant Is Coming — Let’s Help Him Get There

Goal: $80,000.00

Who We’re Helping

Hi, my name is Kay Menzies, and I’m raising funds for my brother, Raymond Peterson. He’s an incredible man—kind, humble, and strong. Over the years, Raymond has been bravely battling heart disease. Now, he’s finally been approved for a heart transplant, with a match expected any time after August 1, 2025.

This is our miracle—but it comes with enormous medical and financial challenges.


Why We Need Your Help

While we are endlessly grateful for the gift of a new heart, the real cost of survival goes far beyond the surgery. Your donation will help cover:
• Pre- and post-operative care
• Lifelong anti-rejection medications
• Frequent testing and follow-up care
• Travel and lodging near the transplant hospital
• Bills and daily expenses that keep piling up

Raymond will need extensive care and time to recover. He can’t do it alone—and neither can Reona.


How You Can Make a Difference

Donate: Every dollar helps ease this incredible burden.
Share: Even if you can’t donate, sharing this campaign means everything.
Send Love: Your messages of encouragement keep Raymond going.

We believe in miracles, and we believe in community. With your support, Raymond can finally breathe easy—with a new heart and a second chance at life.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you.

With love,
Kay and the Peterson Family
