Help raise funds for a beloved veteran and barista!

Gina Tooley, a dedicated veteran, co-president of the Blue Bottle Independent Union, and beloved barista, has recently encountered a life-altering challenge. After being involved in a serious motorcycle accident while on her way to work, Gina is unable to work and faces significant financial burdens. As a community, we have the opportunity to come together and support her during this difficult time.

Gina has always been a pillar of strength and service. Her journey began with her commitment to serving our country as a veteran. Following her military service, Gina continued to give back to her community and as a barista she has become a cherished member at Blue Bottle Coffee, loved by the community, and co-workers alike. Her leadership skills shine through in her role as a union co-president, advocating for the rights and well-being of her colleagues.

Gina was involved in a motorcycle accident that has left her with significant injuries, a broken collar bone and nerve damage on her right arm. As she focuses on recovery, Gina faces the daunting reality of being unable to work the past month, which has presented a serious financial challenge. Medical bills, daily expenses, and the costs associated with rehabilitation are mounting, and Gina needs our help to alleviate this burden.

Gina has dedicated her life to helping others, and now it's our turn to help her. By coming together as a community, we can provide the financial assistance she needs to focus on healing and returning to the work she loves. Let’s rally around Gina and show her the strength of our collective compassion.

Please join us in raising funds to support Gina during her recovery. Every contribution, no matter how small, makes a meaningful difference. Thank you.
