<div>Hi, my name is Alivia, and I'm creating this fundraiser for my mom, Tarra. She has been my biggest supporter in life

</div>

<div>— now it's my turn to fight for her.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Earlier this summer, doctors discovered a mass in my mom's rectum that may be malignant. After careful research, prayer, and consultation, she is beginning treatment at TrueNorth Health Center in Santa Rosa, CA - a place known for providing intensive, supervised healing programs. She'll spend 25 days under their care with daily medical oversight, specialized nutrition, and the ability to continue her gentle herbal protocols.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>This is not just about getting my mom to TrueNorth — it's about giving her the resources she needs during her stay and in the critical months after, when follow-up care, herbal treatments, and specialized testing will determine her long-term recovery.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Our goal covers:

</div>

<div>• 25-day TrueNorth program fees

</div>

<div>• Travel for my mom and her support companion (me!)

</div>

<div>• Lodging and meals before and after her stay

</div>

<div>• The full year of follow-up: labs, herbs, tests, and supportive therapies

</div>

<div>• A small cushion for unexpected medical needs

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>We've calculated these needs carefully, and the total comes to $49,873. This amount ensures my mom can fully focus on healing without the constant stress of "How will we afford the next step?"

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>My mom has always poured her life into caring for our family and community. Now I'm asking for help to make sure she has every chance to heal and get back to the vibrant, giving person she has always been.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>If you can give, please do — every gift, big or small, brings us closer to this goal. And if you can't give right now, you can still help by sharing this fundraiser and keeping my mom in your prayers.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Thank you from the bottom of my heart for standing with us through this journey - to TrueNorth and beyond.

Help My Mom Heal: Life-Saving Care at TrueNorth and Beyond

<div>I'm fundraising for my son and his family for a handicap equipped van they desperately need for doctor and hospital visits or just be able to get out with his family. The van they have now has well over 200,000 miles and constantly needs repairs. They are great hardworking kids with my 3 year old granddaughter. They had their own place and doing good until my son was in a automobile accident due to an epileptic seizure and was paralyzed from his chest down. My son, Preston only receives $1,000 a month through social security, so that leaves his fiance, Micah with most of the bills including daycare. I am so proud of them because they stuck together through all what they been through and still make it work somehow but this will definitely put a hurt on their finances. I feel like they got cheated and want them to be able to at least enjoy all the little things in life they deserve. Thank you so much for your help.

Family needs a handicap equipped van

<div>Several McKinney North families were caravanning to Florida for Spring Break when they were struck by a motorist resulting in a multi-car accident and several serious injuries.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Trevor Dutton remains in critical care in Mobile, Alabama. After several days, he has miraculously regained consciousness from his coma and is currently undergoing several medical procedures on his road to recovery.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Rex Fitch has been released and transported back to the Dallas area for surgery to repair his broken jaw. Future surgeries could be necessary if his internal injuries do not heal on their own.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Caroline Curdy immediately returned to McKinney for surgical repair of her broken arm. The long recovery ahead of her will limit her ability to work.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>In addition to the unexpected medical expenses, these families are faced with multiple totaled cars, rental cars costs, last-minute flights, and emotional turmoil that no one should ever have to endure.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Please consider donating to this GoFundMe to support all the impacted MNHS families, including the Duttons, Fitches, Curdys, Schneiders, and McFarlands, who were and will continue to be impacted by this horrific accident.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The outpouring of love and support that has already been received through the private Venmo fundraiser will be consolidated with the proceeds from this GoFundMe. The families would like to express their sincere gratitude and appreciation for your thoughtfulness and kindness in their time of need.

<div>Hello, and thank you for taking the time to read this. We are attempting to gather a small collection to provide some financial support to Bries family during their most difficult time. As Amanda, Chris and Madi move through the motions of funeral and memorial arrangements, financial worries should not be an added concern. They are deeply grieving their tragic loss and I’m sure will appreciate your kindness. 
</div>
<div>Any amount is very much appreciated.
</div>

Hello, My name is Gabriela Ray. I'm a current senior in high school. For my senior project, I am creating a fundraiser for a little girl whose dream is to go to Disney World. Her name is Landry, she is 6 years old and suffers from a heart dysfunction. The heart defect was the first and major of her illnesses, but it has also contributed to other illnesses that are constantly requiring her to go to multiple doctor appointments and sometimes lengthy hospital stays. Today she is a smiling girl who continues to fight like a champion every day! It would be such a blessing to be able to help her achieve her dream vacation away from needles and white coats. Please help me raise money to make her dream come true.  For those who donate, there will be a random drawing among you guys for a 100 dollar gift card.

Landry's magical getaway

In the early morning hours of January 3 we tragically lost Stacy Barney an amazing mom, wife and friend.  We are devastated by the events that have transpired and are totally at a loss.  We want to raise funds to help alleviate some of the financial burden of funeral costs, hotels and provide for the family's needs at this time. We are doing our best to jump in and do what Stacy would have done for her family. We loved her with all our heart and life will never be the same.

Barney Family

Anyone that knows Jason Hernandez knows how he has a heart for constantly helping others from hosting annual events for the kids of McKinney to organizing the transformation of the Hispanic cemetery. The list goes on and on BUT now he needs some help from us as a community. Jason is in desperate need of an emergency shoulder surgery, this will cost upwards of $12k not including physical therapy EVEN with insurance!! Since COVID most of his speaking engagements for criminal justice reform were canceled which has directly effected his income. So as a community of people who love him we have decided to try and raise the needed amount without him knowing to relive that burden. Let's show him the love he so graciously shows us. Please feel free to reach out with any questions.

Jason's Shoulder Surgery

We have created this Go Fund Me to help support our favorite family, the Gary &amp; Valerie Moore family. <br /><br /><strong>A message from Valerie:</strong><br /><br />You all given so much and each of you have blessed us with your prayers, support, encouragement, and generosity!<br /><br />Because of all the love and support from our family, friends, and community, we have been able to fight this disease, make our home wheelchair accessible, and continue to provide for our needs that exceed our monthly income. I have been able to stay home and care for Gary and our children for the past year. We steward all that is given and bless others when we can because we have been so blessed.<br /><br />This year has been extra difficult for so many of us and I know finances are tight, so please do not feel like you have to give if you are unable. Please just continue to lift us up in prayer daily. Gary is still able to breathe, eat pureed food, and take drinks. He can still bear his weight on occasion, and is able to get out letters and sounds that I can usually decipher. He is slowly getting weaker in his body, tires more easily, and gets short of breath, but he is still the STRONGEST person I know mentally, spiritually, and emotionally. Keep those prayers coming for strength, peace, healing, energy, contentment, rest and any other prayer you know would be beneficial for Gary and our whole family.<br /><br />Hopefully, next year we will be able to have our annual golf tournament again. <br /><br />Thank you all so much!! I feel like the neediest family on the planet, but I have to get over that and accept the blessings. One day I know God will enable us to pay it forward, back, and sideways.<br /><br />We love you all!<br />Gary, Val, Faith, Blakely, and Trey

Moore Family Blessings

On July 25th Wesley Little showed up on my Mothers doorstep with a 15 yr old girl that he had abducted.   My sister Deanna Cook had by chance seen the post about the missing girl earlier in the day, my family having dealt with Wes in past knew him to be a shady character and knew that the girl with him was in imminent danger.  When Wes showed up with the girl, my sister figured he had learned the house was on the market and figured it was vacant.  The house was under contract and set to close on August 26th.  Wes said he needed to park his car in the garage and as calmly as possible my sister said she was on her way to the store anyway so pull around and he could pull in as she was leaving.  She escaped without alarming the kidnapper and called the police.  My mother and sister, fearing for the girls life, provided the police with the lockbox, garage and alarm codes and gave them complete access to the home to protect the girl.   The good news is the girl, Haliee, was released unharmed and is now back with her grandparents.   The bad news is after every door in the house was broken down, windows smashed, fence torn down,  tear gas was released, and Wes Little committed suicide on my mom's bed.  The house is completely unsellable and needs to be completely gutted and rebuilt to remove the teargas from the walls.  The police victims fund only protects people like Haliee  for physical and emotional damage.  The insurance company is saying they aren't responsible for "government" damage.  So my Mother is left in limbo.  The sale of that house was her retirement security.  She has spent her entire life fighting for, and helping people and now I'm fighting for her.  These pictures unfortunately don't show the tear gas damage that is what makes the house completely uninhabitable even if we did repair the remaining damage.  We are a pro police family and we are not blaming the individual officers involved.  The questions that remain are why did this happen and why is it my Mothers responsibility to pay all the damages when it was my Mother and sister that were crucial in saving that girl? Please if you cannot donate share this.  This story has received ZERO media coverage and the more exposure we get the more help we can get my Mother.   Thank you for reading!

Wheels For Tonya Winchester

On Thursday, November 16, 2017 Callie Hobbs a happy then thirteen-year-old girl suffered a terrible accident at home during her evening bath.  Callie, was rushed by ambulance to Grady Memorial Hospital where she has spent months in a medically induced coma in Grady’s Burn Unit ICU with severe 2nd and 3rd degree burns over 40% of her body.<br /><br />Tragically, to complicate matters more, during the first 24 hours in the ICU doctors discovered a previously unknown blood clot in her right leg which had become aggravated during treatment and her leg had to be amputated above the knee. Callie is still in critical condition but stable.  Doctors are having to keep her heavily sedated while her body heals.<br /><br />As of <strong>day 163</strong> since the accident, Callie has already undergone over 21 surgeries with extensive skin grafts for her burns.  Callie will remain in the ICU at Grady for at least another 3-4 weeks. The hope is to move to Children’s at Scottish Rite for inpatient rehab for several months.<br /><br />Callie’s family and especially her mom, Karen Reedy and her father Jay Hobbs have selflessly devoted their lives to caring for Callie. The extremely rare Angelman Syndrome disorder causes significant developmental delays, lack of speech, seizures, and walking and balance disorders. Individuals with Angelman syndrome will require life-long care. <br /><br /><img class="not-resizable" src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/25919850_1527256525.1621_funddescription.jpg" alt="" width="100%" />                           <strong>Day 179 - Callie Is Home</strong><br /><br />As you can imagine, caring for a child with Angelman Syndrome is incredibly challenging, even more so when accommodations must be made at both mom’s house and dad’s house. Both Karen and Jay will now be faced with many new challenges in caring for Callie as they try and embrace this new normal. With Callie’s amputation, extensive rehab and wound care for burns, many of those challenges and additional expenses are still unknown.<br /><br />Karen’s close friends and colleagues want to do whatever we can to ease the burden for this family as we know of some things that will be needed including installing lifts at home and in their vehicles, retrofitting each of their homes and bathrooms with ramps and accessibility when Callie returns home from treatment.<br /><br /><strong>How can you help?</strong> <br /><br />#GiveAnAngelWings. As this Christmas season of giving is upon us, we would like to raise $20,000 to assist Callie and her parents with unexpected expenses from prolonged hospital stays, missed work and medical expenses. Any amount, large or small, can help!<br /><br />Thank you, on behalf of the Hobbs-Reedy family for your continued prayers for healing for our sweet angel-girl, Callie Hobbs.<br /><br />Tammy Albright and Northpointe Bank in Alpharetta have generously helped us set up this GoFundMe account and have adopted Callie's family this Christmas. If you or your company feel called to adopt this family in need this holiday, we can provide you with additional materials to help share among your employees.<br /><br /><br /><a href="https://www.facebook.com/karen.c.hobbs/videos/10210193076655365/" target="_blank"><img class="not-resizable" src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/25919850_1525306454.8904_funddescription.png" alt="" width="100%" /></a>                          <a href="https://www.facebook.com/karen.c.hobbs/videos/10210193076655365/" target="_blank">Watch Video Made by her brother</a> <br /><br /><br />Thank you, on behalf of the Hobbs-Reedy family for your continued prayers for healing for our sweet angel-girl, Callie Hobbs.

Karen was involved in a serious collision while traveling alone in Chicago on July 12th. She was standing behind her parked rental car and in front of a parked SUV when a car traveling at a high rate of speed came around the corner, slammed into her rental, pushed it out of the way and then slammed into Karen crushing her between both vehicles. <strong>She suffered at least four breaks in her right leg, a severely damaged right ankle and foot. At first, doctors didn’t think they could save the foot, but recently decided that she could keep it, though doing so means she'll deal with damaged tendons and skin grafts.  She also suffered a fractured left pelvis near the spinal column and a damaged left hip.</strong> <strong>So far,</strong> <strong>she has had almost 10 surgeries </strong>and is currently waiting the surgeons' okays to release<strong> </strong>her<strong> </strong>to a rehab hospital also in Chicago. <br /><br />Remarkably, Karen has been in good spirits. Her only concern so far has been the care of her two cats Sam &amp; CeCe. Fortunately, friends have been able to take turns visiting her home, caring for the cats  and assuring her "kids" that "mom" will eventually be home.<br /><br />Medical bills are beginning to come in and how she will pay for these is not something Karen needs to be worried about at this time. <strong>She is an 8th grade Algebra teacher in Reno, Nevada and will not be able to work during this fall semester.</strong> <strong>(Whether she is able to work in the spring semester will be determined later).</strong> While medical insurance will help pay for some of the medical bills, there are still many other out-of-pocket expenses which it will not cover including modifying her home to be wheelchair accessible, transportation fees of getting her back to Reno and into a second rehab center once she's there. <br /><br /><strong>While these costs, including copays and deductibles should be paid for by the responsible parties' insurance, that is a big question mark and likely a legal battle.</strong> <strong>Karen is facing the likelihood that she will be left financially responsible for all these out-of-pocket expenses.</strong> <br /><br />Please consider making a donation. Doing so will provide <strong>healing help for Karen </strong>so that she can get back to <strong>a normal life</strong>, including her beloved hiking and cycling.<strong><br /></strong>

Healing Help for Karen

At this point I dont think we know too much of what is going on other than the Harris family in our neighborhood <strong>experienced,</strong> what I would imagine as, the scariest family emergency in the middle of the night.<br /><br />Looking at our Facebook page Truett and Donna Harris have a couple of kids and a couple of pets - donations will be given to the Harris family to help in the short term until they have a better understanding of what will be needed and how much their insurance can help.<br /><br />Others suggested gift cards - and that is a very smart thing as those gift cards and this donation page will likely cover the immediate needs of the family from clothes to everyday items to pet needs.<br /><br /><br />We do not know the family, but if we can get their info on the Facebook page we can connect and provide all the donations ASAP.<br />Matt &amp; Justine Garcia<br />6420 Falcon Ridge Ln

Our sweet Shanon Murphy has been accepted into Infant Swimming Resource Instructor Training and she needs our help to make her dream happen! <br /><br />From Shanon: <br />I've been wanting to find some way to provide swim lessons for families that can't afford them. Let's face it. They're not cheap.<br /><br />My sister mentioned wanting to look into becoming an ISR Instructor. I got home on Tuesday and started looking up info on doing that. They are expanding the family of ISR instructors in my area. So, I asked my sister if she would be OK if I applied for an interview with ISR to see about becoming an instructor myself. Maybe at some point down the line she can join me in the process.<br /><br />It seems kind of meant to be. I can give lessons in the afternoons. They encourage instructors to give lessons to kids that can't afford them. Perfect opportunity to make a difference in the lives of families who don't want to experience the tragedy we did with Ethan and Rolando. They even discount the price of training by $4,500 if you agree to train so many kids for free! Total win.<br /><br />I can't go back in time to change what happened to Ethan and Rolando, but I can try to do my part to help others never feel what my family has felt. I feel like that's my purpose in this world. To help people. Fingers crossed that all the cards align and I can do this.
