My name is Jon and I am leading an effort to assist Kelly with both accumulated and forthcoming medical bills.

I know Kelly as a ridiculously good friend whose only aim is to be of service to those around her. She is honest and loving, I treasure her. Recently, Kelly found herself in need of emergency medical attention. In the past week, she has required two ER visits, including one ambulance ride. My last stay in a hospital averaged $500/hour. While Kelly's condition has improved, she has incurred and will have additional significant medical bills.

Both Matt and Kelly wish that this request wasn't needed, but the invoices that have been incurred are so significant that I suggested taking the GoFundMe route. After all, is this not what community is about?

Community. Bringing what you can at a time of need. Coming together in support of one of our own. Your gift will have an outsized effect on both Kelly's health and ability to get back on track, shining the light she is known for.
