Support Joe “Chuckie” Bone Marrow Transplant
Donation protected
Joe—“Chuckie” to family and friends—is a 54-year-old dad, former police officer, and longtime youth-sports mentor now fighting leukemia. Aggressive chemo and radiation have left him too weak to work and with mounting medical bills. Doctors say his best hope is a bone-marrow transplant, but he must regain enough strength in the next few months to prepare for surgery.
Your gift—of any size—will help cover daily living costs, rehab, and the looming transplant expenses so Joe can focus on healing instead of bills. If you can’t donate, please share his story. Thank you for standing with a man who has spent his life standing up for others.
We’re asking for help—whatever size gift feels right—to ease the financial strain of daily living costs, ongoing treatments, and the transplant itself. Your support will let Joe focus on healing instead of worrying about rent, medication, or the next hospital invoice.
If you can’t give, sharing his story means the world to us. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for standing with Joe on this uphill journey.
Chuckie is a devoted man of God whose unwavering faith has been his guiding light through this journey. We believe that intercessory prayers for healing grace will provide the breakthrough that we’re seeking. Chuckie lives out of state, away from most of his childhood and college friends, but our family is doing everything we can to support him. Despite our efforts, the costs associated with his treatment, hospital stays, and daily living expenses are overwhelming. The transplant is tentatively scheduled for August, so there is an urgent need to help Chuckie get the care he needs and give him the best possible chance at recovery.
Funds raised will go directly toward Chuckie’s medical bills, travel for treatment, and essential living expenses while he is unable to work. Any support will make a meaningful difference in his fight against leukemia and help ease the burden during this critical time.
