I met Stephen Pearrow through his wife, Summer, while they were both working at Richland County Sheriff's Dept. They both would give the shirts off their backs to help anyone. Summer and her husband came through for me in 2022 when I called Summer late at night, when everyone should be sleeping, to help me with a crisis/problem in my life, and I have been so grateful for her and Stephen since I made that phone call to her. They were instrumental to me. I want to give back to them during this time of need to help offset medical costs and everyday expenses.

A few days ago, it was discovered that Stephen had a tumor on his brain. It was not discovered until he had fallen and needed an MRI. He had emergency brain surgery at Prisma. Summer was informed that his tumor was incredibly rare, with only 1 in 3 million people having this tumor. Right now, Summer is on FMLA and runs out of paid leave in 9 days. Stephen works as Chief Security Officer and will be out indefinitely for more than 6 months. He is still in ICU with plans to eventually transfer him to a long-term care facility for rehabilitation.
