Rocko Has Helped Everyone...Now He Needs Help

Donation protected
THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO HAS DONATED!
I brought Rocko the first chunk of YOUR donations to him and he was very thankful. He really liked it when I showed him all your names in the GoFundMe app.
I will be visiting him to deliver the rest of your donations next week as I’m waiting for all of the funds you’ve donated to be available for withdrawal. Corey and I are keeping nothing because you didn’t donate to us, did ya?

Joseph Schwab, aka Rocko, took care of his grandma for over 10 years till she passed in 2022. He stopped his life in San Jose to move back to Philadelphia to look after her because Rocko is a caring, LOYAL dude who made sure her last years were comfortable at the expense of his own. Now Rocko is back in San Jose trying to get his life in order and he needs our help, right now.
Rocko ALWAYS lent his time or money to ANYONE who needed it for years. He was always there to help even when it wasn't requested. But the tables have turned and he needs our help until he finds a job.
Rocko moved to San Jose in the early 80's from Philadelphia and became a downtown fixture working at The Laundry Works, The Cactus Club, and The Blank Club. He has a YouTube Channel featuring a lot of his videos shot from the 80's to the 2000's that showcase his creative side while preserving what the scene in Downtown San Jose was like in the 80's and 90's.
If ever there was someone that deserved the help from others it is Rocko. Please donate what you can so he can secure a roof over his head, a mobile phone, and food.
No one deserves to live on the streets. This is our chance to make sure that a generous, good hearted man like Rocko avoids a situation he clearly doesn't deserve.

Thank you for doing what you can!
