The response to this GoFundMe is absolutely incredible. Montie Barham & wife, Carolyn, are beyond grateful for each person helping them. They will be able to share a comment at some point. We believe the decision of Montie & Carolyn allowing us to fundraise for them will give other Veterans the courage to ask for help. Thank you all for being a part of this vital endeavor.

For Montie Barham Montie Barham is a highly decorated Vietnam Veteran who is now facing the heartbreaking possibility of losing his home. Montie has earned 2 Purple Hearts, 2 Bronze Stars, and an Air Medal for saving his platoon, along with several other medals in service to this country. Today, after giving so much, Montie is dealing with the lasting effects of Agent Orange, liver disease connected to Vietnam, and lung disease. On top of these serious health challenges, Montie is now in urgent danger of foreclosure, and time has run out before the sheriff sale. Montie has owned this property and lived at this residence for 50 years, making the threat of losing his home even more devastating. Every avenue to prevent the foreclosure has been exhausted, and another obstacle has interfered with stopping the sale date. At this point, the only way to help Montie keep his home is to pay the mortgage in full. Several Grateful Americans are asking for support for Montie during this critical moment. Thank you for your interest in helping one of America’s heroes. Our country owes this Veteran a debt that can never truly be repaid, and any help will mean the world. Please consider donating and sharing this fundraiser to help Montie Barham stop the foreclosure and remain in the home he deserves to keep.
