Superhero Needs Your Help

Monty Shipman is the Lead Technician at Recovery Unplugged, a well known drug and alcohol treatment center in Austin, TX.

As the Lead Tech, Monty has made a profound impact on the lives and recoveries of countless people in our community.

Well, now he needs our help...

On September 30, 2021, Monty suffered a full blown stroke that left him almost completely incapacitated. Luckily, he got to the hospital in time to get a "clot buster" which exponentially increased his chance for a full recovery; however, as of the time of this post (October 15, 2021), Monty has yet to regain many of his faculties and still has a long road ahead of him before he'll be anywhere near able to work again and pay his bills.

If Monty has positively impacted your life please help us reach our financial goal and help a man that's helped so many others.

If he's bought you a pack of "Chesterfields" or bought you groceries while you were a client at RU...

If he's worked on your guitar for a fraction of what someone of his caliber would charge because you were broke and in early recovery... (Monty was a guitar tech for over 40 years on the road with everyone from Moterhead, John Entwhistle of The Who, and Carlos Santana to Breaking Benjamin, Rob Thomas, and Jackyl)

If he's ever bent over backwards to help you in any way, PLEASE help us cover his expenses until he can get back to work!!

Monty would never asked for this, but he really needs our help.

Your kind and charitable donations will go towards paying his rent, living expenses, and medical bills (which will be astronomical without health insurance!).

Please act fast! Monty is in his third week out of work and into 24 hour medical care/therapy.
