Support Salt River Firefighter Joseph Christopher

Joseph Christopher is a Firefighter/Paramedic with the Salt River Fire Department in Scottsdale, Arizona.

After six years of service to his community, he was recently diagnosed with a germ cell tumor that amassed in his lungs. He is heading quickly towards a long journey through chemotherapy. Therapy will begin September 2nd and will be going through four months of a treatment called VIP that is aggressive due to the size of the tumor. He will hopefully then be able to travel down the path towards healing and recovery to get back to his daily activities with life, his family, and career.

He and his partner of eleven years, Julienne, share four children: his stepdaughter Tatianna (17), and his three sons, Joaquin (9), Jokai (5), and Joel (4).

Due to this rapid shift of life events any support you could offer would be extremely helpful.

Funds would go to help with any necessary medical or personal family needs as they navigate through this difficult time and for the recovery process. It is his hope that he will be able to overcome this diagnosis and continue to serve the Salt River Pima Maricopa Indian Community and continue to provide care and support to others in the way that he has been shown with the amazing medical staff he has encountered so far.

Thank you in advance for your support and to all who have shown support so far.
