Hi everyone,

I'm reaching out for help on behalf of my partner, Billy Villegas. This past summer, Billy discovered a passion for dodgeball after joining a local LGBTQ+ dodgeball league. He quickly became known for his powerful throws and even helped his team secure 1st place in the summer season! However, during the first game of the fall season on October 7th, Billy broke his arm—the humerus bone, a rare and difficult bone to fracture. It accounts for less than 3% of all fractures, being one of the strongest bones in the body.

He’s now facing significant medical bills for treatment and potential surgery, and his recovery requires him to keep his arm immobile, meaning he’ll be out of work for some time. Along with the costs of treatment and recovery, he’ll need financial support to cover essential bills during this time.

Billy lights up any room he enters, with an incredible ability to connect with people of all backgrounds. His kindness and generosity are unmatched—he’s the type of person who would help anyone in need without hesitation. He works as a manager for an after-school program in Chinatown, always going above and beyond, especially for the children he works with. And though it can be challenging for him to ask for help himself, we’re turning to our community to support him through this tough time.

Any contribution, no matter how small, would make a huge difference and mean the world to Billy. Thank you so much for your kindness and support!
