One of our own could use a lil' help healing from an injury

Thank you all for your generosity! My goal was $250 to cover a co-pay. I will be closing this soon. **** :)

Hello, I have the pleasure of working with Ms. Some in the ESOL office at Alief Hayes. Many of you have been greeted by her friendly smile. She is a part-time office assistant. True to the general ESOL ethos, not only does she assist our students, she works with CE students from Iran and Afghanistan to help them enroll or even to help them negotiate the challenges of the IT Help Desk. The front desk and advisors now bring students to her from other programs so she can assist in translation.

Somayeh had a medical emergency a few weeks ago. A dog bit her dominant hand, requiring multiple visits to urgent care, who promptly sent her to the ER. Altho she promptly sought medical help, her injury became infected and she was hospitalized for a few days. As a part-time employee, she earned no income for 1.5 weeks. She has been referred to an orthopedist for possible surgery. The amount chosen for this fundraising campaign matches the co-pay. She doesn't know that we have started this fundraiser for her. She faces all challenges with a smile.

Thank you!
