Corey Jacobson is not just my friend—he’s someone I consider a brother. For over a decade, Corey has been a constant source of kindness and support in my life and the lives of many others. He’s always been there for his friends, coworkers, family, and anyone in need, never hesitating to lend a hand or offer encouragement. Corey’s generosity and warmth have made him a beloved husband, son, brother, and friend to so many.

Recently, Corey was diagnosed with testicular cancer. He has surgery scheduled for the end of the month, as well as further diagnostics to determine the full extent of the cancer. This news has brought unexpected challenges, including out-of-pocket medical expenses, lower wages due to missed time from work for both him and his wife, and potential travel costs for treatment. The financial strain is significant, and your support can make a real difference in helping Corey and his family focus on his recovery without the added stress of mounting bills.

Corey, like most men, was hesitant to accept and ask for help. That’s why I’m reaching out to all of you—to show Corey just how much he means to us and to surround him with love and support. He is strong and determined, and I have no doubt he will beat this cancer. Any help is welcome, and no donation is too small. If you’d like to support Corey and Lily in other ways, such as making a meal during his surgery recovery, please contact me directly. Thank you for joining us in this fight and for showing Corey the power of community.
