I come to you for help for my best friend, Joel Newsome, whose family is facing a crisis.

Joel's father, Joe, is currently battling complete kidney failure, requiring dialysis three times a week. Due to his worsening physical health and cognitive impairment, Joel’s father became the target of a cruel and calculated financial scam. Tragically, he has lost everything—his life savings, financial stability, and his ability to afford basic necessities.

Law enforcement has been contacted as well as the fraud departments of the financial institutions involved, however the chances of recovering the stolen funds are slim.

Joel and his brother Jamey have been blindsided by this and are scrambling to cover delinquent bills and overwhelming emergency expenses which are:

Electric bill (electricity will be shut off Feb. 2nd)

Water bill

Home owners insurance

Eldercare attorney's fees

Transportation to and from dialysis'

Caregiving assistance

Groceries

Every contribution, even as little as $10, will make a difference.

This is a crisis like none other.

I'm deeply grateful for any help you can give.

xoxo

Cindy
