My name is Don DeBernardi and my longtime friend Dave McDonald from Los Barriles, MX is in need of funds to pay for ongoing medical care.

About two weeks ago, Dave had to quickly leave Los Barriles for Medford, Oregon for medical treatment. His medical bills have already diminished his savings, and he is in need of funds while he is recovering in temporary skilled nursing care. His goal is to recover in Oregon, then return to Los Barriles, MX, which he has made his long-term home.

If you know Dave (known sometimes as the mayor of Los Barriles), you know that he is a kind soul who has done a lot for the local Mexican community and our world at large. He always greets you with a smile and would give you the shirt off of his back. Please consider donating to Dave's cause—I would like to meaningfully exceed his fundraising goal so that he can get back on with his retirement life as soon as possible!
