How much is a life worth? Now an active EMERGENCY

Donation protected
I started this GoFundMe for my dear friend whose mother was my health care client who needs our help more than ever now.

We are asking every person to ask themselves, is a life worth $1? 

Is that life worth the few moments it would take to ask all your friends to donate $1 and to share and ask their friends to do the same? Please watch the above video and ask yourself if life is worth one dollar?

Bruce Pringlemeir is a disabled 54-year-old Faulkner County man who has spent the last 13 years taking care of his elderly mother and helping provide a safe, clean home for them both, focused on her declining years. Bruce has sacrificed his own health and income when no one else in his family had any time or interest in doing so. Bruce's devotion to the care of his mother was "above and beyond" in all regards.   In the wake of her passing at 82 on June 21st, 2020  after having been connected to a ventilator for two months, he has been left with his own health issues and beneath a load of debt thanks to an immense reverse mortgage his mother set up years before.
 
Having devoted his later life to caring for his mother, he will be evicted by foreclosure from their home due to his inability to pay and no real ability to work thanks to his own health issues. With the foreclosure and the years-long waits for governmental housing assistance, he will be homeless, and with his health issues, being on the streets will be a death sentence.
 
But he has friends.
 
We are trying to help him get a cargo van or a small used shuttle bus for conversion into a camper van tall enough to live in. The campaign goal is intended to cover the costs of buying the vehicle as well as the "Tiny House" conversion. Once the vehicle is purchased, Bruce will be selling his 2012 Ford Fusion to help cover the modification costs. Between the price of the basic vehicle, conversion equipment, and the cost of labor, the requested $30,000 may even be an underestimation of what will be needed. (When all the work must be contracted out and can't be performed by the owner, costs skyrocket.)

Bruce receives $1000 Social Security monthly, no other income, and is overwhelmed with his mother’s remaining bills. This man has served this nation for 30 plus years in Christian ministry selflessly helping others around the country and served his community for 2 years in the local sheriff department. He is fiercely loyal. Whom and what he loves, he loves tremendously, deeply. This man puts his mother, friends, and community first.  His entire life he has lived by the motto that “then needs of the many outweigh the needs of the one”

Now the one needs us. It's time for his community to give back and recognize his sacrifice.
 
If you are able to help, please donate. Also, we respectfully request that you share this with those whom you know via Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, church families, and others. If you know of organizations or businesses that might be able to help sponsor us, please let us know. We don't know when the eviction is coming due to the Presidential bans but it will likely be by the end of the year. Vehicle conversion takes time as well
 
Thank you and God bless you.
