Dear friends, family, and kind strangers,

I’m reaching out on behalf of my dear friend and coworker, Gabrielle, who was recently involved in a devastating electric scooter accident. While riding home from work, Gabrielle struck a traffic barrier that had been knocked over into the scooter lane—something no one could have anticipated. She suffered a severely broken wrist requiring multiple surgeries, including a skin graft, and she faces at least one more surgery in the near future. Gabrielle is a hardworking restaurant employee who pours her heart into everything she does, but this accident has left her unable to work for the next few months. With rent, bills, and mounting medical expenses, she is in urgent need of support. Any donation, no matter the size, would make a world of difference in helping Gabrielle heal without the added stress of financial hardship. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your generosity and kindness.
