Support Paul & Aria through Emergency Family Medical Crisis

Our dear friends, Paul and Aria, are going through a major family medical crisis and need our support. They are facing overwhelming expenses for extensive medical treatment for a loved one, far beyond their resources and capacity. We are raising funds to cover the current anticipated medical costs and to supplement their basic living expenses for the next three to four months while they provide care for their loved one.

Your contributions will allow them to access vital emergency treatment and focus on what is needed for their family. Treatment planning is already in progress, so the need is immediate. They have already spent over $15k on diagnostics and triage with health professionals, and the upcoming medical costs will be at least another $60,000; more if continued treatment or care is necessary. For privacy reasons, we cannot go into details about the circumstances.

Paul and Aria's business livelihoods have been and will continue to be impacted by these unexpected expenses and the attentional needs of the family. This is on top of a separate two-year protracted family legal battle which has drained their personal savings and is still ongoing.

As the teacher and spiritual leader for Eon Zen Center, Paul receives a modest stipend, but it is a fraction of what is needed.

They are navigating the emotional turmoil and stress of a health crisis with staggering medical expenses that aren’t covered by their health plan, and their resources are exhausted.

Please join us in giving Paul and Aria the support they need so they can care for their family during this time.

Paul and Aria offer so much love into the world, and are loved by so many. They give generously to their community with their time, care and connection, their home, their hearts, and their presence.

Paul works one-on-one with many Eon Zen students on a daily basis and in monthly retreats for deeper work, and with many others through his executive and life coaching. He has provided profound teaching, guidance, and leadership to develop the Eon Zen spiritual community and to encourage other teachers and practitioners as well. Aria has helped many to reconnect with their vital life-force through her Rose Conscious Movement sessions, dance classes and other offerings that support embodiment and healing.

They have both dedicated their lives to serving others.

You can support them by contributing as you are called and able, and also by sharing this GoFundMe.

Funds donated here will go directly to Paul and Aria, minus a small transaction fee for the payment processor.
