I’m raising funds for myself because I need extensive dental treatment to restore my mouth. After more than 20 years helping others regain dignity, I’m now in the position of needing help myself.

The estimated cost of treatment is between $64,000 and $80,000, with final pricing still pending. I’m not employed, and my growing business cannot cover an expense this large. This has brought me to a place where I need to ask for support so I can move forward with the care I need.

This treatment matters to me in very real, everyday ways. I want to be able to eat comfortably, speak confidently, and continue serving people who often feel ignored. Restoring my mouth would help me function more fully and keep showing up for the work that means so much to me.

If you’re able to donate, thank you. If you’re not in a position to give, sharing this fundraiser would also mean a lot. Every act of support helps me get closer to the treatment I need.
