Recently, I experienced an unexpected health situation that required medical care and time away from work. While I'm focused on recovery and following my doctors' guidance, the experience has created medical expenses and a temporary loss of income that I wasn't prepared for.

I currently work part-time, about 15 hours a week, and even a short interruption in my ability to work has a significant financial impact. Between medical costs, medications, and the time needed to recover, the expenses are quickly adding up.

I'm starting this fundraiser to help with:

• Medical expenses and ongoing care

• Medications and follow-up appointments

• Missed work during recovery

• Basic living expenses while I focus on getting healthy again

Many of you know me through the events, projects, and community spaces I've helped create over the years. Bringing people together and building welcoming spaces has always meant a lot to me. Asking for help isn't easy, but right now I could truly use the support of the community around me while I work toward getting back on my feet.

If you're able to contribute, even a small amount makes a meaningful difference. And if donating isn't possible, sharing this page helps more than you know.

Thank you for the kindness, encouragement, and support during this time.

With gratitude,

Gregg
