Hi everyone! My name is Shelly James, and I’m raising money for a cause that means a lot to me.

Because Lilly was attacked by two German shepherds about to hurt into. She’s like a family member in our home. We miss her so bad. She’s been in the hospital for a month now she’s had a kidney removed and I had another surgery. The vet will not release her until her bill is paid in full so I need donations to get her home where she belongs with her family. She’s like a daughter to me and I know she misses us too.

Barbershop Books, Inc.

Barbershop Books inspires Black boys and other vulnerable children to read for fun through child-centered, culturally responsive, and community-based programming and content.

Every contribution, big or small, makes a real impact. Even just a few dollars can help move this mission forward and reach those who need it most.

If you can’t donate right now, sharing this fundraiser is also incredibly helpful. Thank you so much for your kindness and generosity. It means the world to me.
