Support Melissa's Recovery and Family

Donation protected
Hello beautiful community. I am starting this site with the persmission of Melissa's family to help with Melissa's medical bills and their travels and expenses. Please help with what you can, and know that we send all the love we have as we are grieving Robbi, and sending as much love as we can to Melissa for a full recovery.

*update- there may be up to $200,000 in flight/transport fees alone.

Melissa's dad just shared with me this photo. It is the best. I had to change the photo to this one. Thanks again everyone for your support. It is overwhelming. It speaks to who Melissa is, and the communities they have immersed themselves in and built.

Melissa's aunt Alice is a Certified Public Accountant. She has been asked by Melissa's parents to hold this fundraising money in trust while they are tending to Melissa's medical needs and bedside support through her recovery.

Thank you all again for your continued support of Melissa!

Melissa's family just got a quote on her transport from Anchorage to Grand Rapids at 92,000. This is considered a want rather than a need according to the insurance, so we are hoping to raise the remainder of that cost for Melissa and their family to get to Michigan. Please share, and donate if you can!!

Thank you!
