Urgent Appeal: Community Rallies Around Pam in Wake of Devastating Stroke

 

Motley MN, U.S. state of Minnesota. - 29 | 03 | 2024 - In a startling turn of events, Pam, a beloved member of our community, recently faced a life-altering stroke episode, sending shockwaves through her and her loved ones' lives. Pam's courageous battle against this sudden health crisis has ignited a groundswell of support as friends, family, and compassionate strangers unite to aid her on the road to recovery.

The harrowing experience unfolded when Pam, accompanied by her devoted husband Victor, was rushed to the emergency room following a sudden stroke. While medical intervention saved her life, the aftermath revealed a sobering truth: Pam had been enduring silent micro-strokes, undetected until now.

Adding to the complexity of her situation, past warning signs were regrettably overlooked, leaving Pam to navigate this daunting health challenge without the necessary support. Compounding the issue, Pam finds herself without a job or health insurance coverage, further intensifying the financial strain of managing her medical condition.

In response to this pressing need, Pam has launched a GoFundMe campaign to solicit assistance in covering the exorbitant costs of essential medications, diagnostic tests, hospital visits, and stays. Every contribution, whether large or small, plays a vital role in ensuring Pam's access to the critical care and treatment required for her recovery.

"We're overwhelmed by the outpouring of support from our community during this trying time," shares Pam. "Your generosity brings hope and relief to Victor and me as we navigate this challenging journey towards healing."

Pam's resilience in the face of adversity serves as an inspiration to all who know her. As she courageously battles back from this setback, let us stand alongside her, offering our support, encouragement, and financial assistance to lighten the burden and pave the way for a brighter future.

Announcing the Medical Campaign to Help Cynthia Hart



Cynthia Hart/Kizerian Beating The Odds

Salt Lake City, UT  March 15, 2015 – Mary Hart is the proud daughter of Cynthia and Jimmy Hart. Her Dad passed away October 6, 2014 from ALS (Lou Gehrigs Disease.) During this time, Mary’s mom got the help she needed through sobriety so she could be there for her husband and family. Mary was her father's power of attorney and primary caregiver, but couldn't have done it without the help of her mother. Without her, the death of her father and the recovery process would have been unfathomable.
Mary and her mother have been through a lot this past year. Mary’s mother is the strongest woman she has ever met, she’s her everything; her hero, and is the one keeping her going and giving her strength and hope. Three months after the love of her life passed, Cynthia was sadly diagnosed with Stage 3C Ovarian cancer. She successfully had the debulking surgery done, and is now living with Mary in Salt Lake City while completing 6 cycles of 2 different types a chemo; paclitaxel, and carboplatin (chemo every week, 1 cycle=3 weeks). After the 6 cycles of chemo, Mary would like her mom to go to a medical facility outside the U.S. that will be able to help her maintain remission and prevent the cancer from coming back. U.S. statistic for women with ovarian cancer stage 3C, is that 1 out of 6 women live 5 years. I cannot settle for that.
The first step to furthering treatment is to investigate the cause which they have raised enough money for. The doctor whom Mary has spoken with (outside of the U.S.) traveling to Utah this month to collect samples which will then be sent to various countries. Once they're able to know what caused her mother's ovarian cancer, they'll be able to come up with a specific treatment plan after finishing chemo. The treatment cost is unknown until they find the cause, but she has been told treatment could cost between $10,000-$20,000, not including travel  fees. Mary changed the goal amount to $25,000 hoping they can raise enough to find out the cause and the rest to cover all of her of her treatment and plane tickets. And GoFundMe and WePay takes out a nice percentage out of each donation. Once they figure out the cause Mary will change the goal amount to the treatment amount + the fundraising fees for this website.
Please help Mary’s mom get the chance to live and grow old. Please help give her mom the time to fulfill her life. She understands everyone has their own problems, but any type of help would be greatly appreciated.. If you or anyone you know is willing to help throw fundraisers, spread the word, make invitations, get companies on board, etc, please direct them to  http://www.gofundme.com/cancerkissmyass

Salerno, Italy – March 10, 2015 – Crimson Games announces their crowdfunding campaign for their Heroes of Asgard, an old-school MMORPG with new ideas and modern execution, based upon the game play of Metin2, and is due to release in late 2015.

Crimson Games are a team of six people. They have the will, knowledge and most importantly the passion to see this project to the end. What they do lack, is funding to expand their numbers with a team of 3D Modelers and animators and with some more server programmers and Unity3D developers who will help them finish the project by the end of this year.  And that's where they need help with their crowdfunding campaign. However, if they fail to gather required funds via crowdfunding, they certainly won't be giving up on this. Completing Heroes of Asgard is their dream, and you just do not give up on your dreams that easily!

Announcing the It Figures Tax & Accounting Fundraiser



Vancouver, Canada – November 15, 2014 – Almost every time the news pops up, we’re reminded of how chaotic the world can be, from murders and robberies to atrocities committed by governments across the globe. Every event seems to happen because the aggressor wants something; either to preserve oneself or take from others. But what about individuals who have dedicated their whole life, or even just one day for the others around them? Instead of striking the person beside them to the ground or doing nothing, they kneel down and offer their support. While the biggest examples of these often make the news, the majority of those we read are found in blogs written with titles such as, “What This Person Just Did Will Make You Cry,” or, “These Two Men Donated to a Homeless Man. What He Did in Return Will Blow Your Mind”.

These acts of kindness can also be found in crowdfunding sites such as GoFundMe.com, where communities have raised thousands of dollars in a matter of days for individuals who have recently suffered, or have been struggling their whole life. Because of the sheer volume of campaigns that come in, only a few are able to reach their goals.

Among the plethora of campaigns asking for assistance, here’s one that I’d like to share with you:

“A Secret Project for My Mother” is about a woman who was faced with the decision of whether to have an abortion many years back. She decided not to, and instead dedicated her life towards her would-be children and sacrifice her own dreams. This was a very hard decision, and the campaign reveals how much she went through because of that decision. Her son, Brett, who is running the campaign, knows this and in his words is trying to “give [his] mother – a woman who sacrificed everything she had for those around her – one last shot to achieve the impossible”. Achieving the impossible is referring to his mother’s home-based business, which is going to be changing dramatically in the next year. He states that she has to grow it quickly due to circumstances out of her control.

Brett believes she can get past these hurdles, mentioning her performance in finance during her lifetime and including the fact she is on a board of ethics; definitely a plus for someone in the finance industry. He explains however, that “there comes a time in life when you know you can’t do it alone”.

While the goal for the campaign is somewhat high, when Brett breaks it down into parts it’s understandable, considering what his mother has gone through in her life. He even went as far as including a video in the ad, which very few people have done on GoFundMe. If you are interested in the campaign, you can check it out here: http://www.gofundme.com/g4ou2g

Announcing the Justice in an Unjust World Campaign



This is for an empowered mother of 2 and who always fights for others and deserves someone fighting for her.

Ceres, CA – October 25, 2014 – Due to a required binding arbitration process, the lawsuit is sealed and anonymity is important where we can’t mention the person who this campaign is being raised for.  However, what can be said is that she is a very caring and giving person. Always fighting for everyone to be the best and to obtain what is just. We want to give her justice by raising money on GoFundMe to help her through this time of struggle.

She is a mother to two young children, her husband was diagnosed with melanoma cancer and he was undergoing treatment when all of this started.  The family was going through hell thinking that they would not see their daddy for much longer. Fortunately, the melanoma did not go into the bloodstream and the surgery removed all the cancer.

During these hard times, instead of sympathy her employer gave her termination. She, wrongfully, lost her lawsuit against her employer and is now required to pay the defense’s lawyer’s cost. She wholeheartedly felt discrimination, retaliation, and wrongful termination during her husband’s cancer treatment. Unfortunately the world of arbitration is not fair. Arbitration is for corporate America, not Americans. 

She has not been able to find a salary job since her termination in 2012 and is having a hard time with two young children to support. Needless to say, they are in a horrible financial situation and this judgment has pushed the family passed their financial limits.

A GoFundMe campaign was created to give her, her justice. The hope is for her to walk away with her head held high. A lot of women accept discrimination and inequality in the work place because they do not know their rights or they do not want to face horrible outcomes like hers. Yes, fighting for what’s right is hard and it may not give you the outcome you seek. However, if there’s a will then there’s a way and woman need to keep fighting regardless of outcome. If we keep fighting, then eventually, the fights will diminish and they will get easier.  

Please help raise the money for her, so that she can keep fighting and keep holding her head high. When rocks unite together, big and small, collectively, they can take a beating from the massive ocean. As people, we need to stand together and keep fighting for equality.

How to Make Phone Calls Internationally without Breaking the Bank



October 21, 2014 - BBee team, from switzerland with a passion for creating, has just changed the way we use our phones and make international calls. He is creating a new service called “BBee” currently on Indiegogo. The service, aims to turn financially painful international phone calls into something we all can afford. He is even lowering prices below Skype, Viber, Rebtel and any one in the market. The uses for this service are endless: international calling, family events, work conferences and more. Some of us have given up completely on keeping in touch with friends and family oversees because the costs associated with a short call were so high. But now that is about to change.

         


What makes BBee unique? For international and local calls it is 40% cheaper, anyone who funds his project will be billed by the second. No service provider in the world is doing this! Every last competitor is billing by the minute. You, the consumer ends up paying more. So what makes BBee different? Billing by the second, never the minute, and 40% cheaper that any other service provider in the world.

Chabbouh Adel, the creator, is donating all his resources to this new service. He has created really fantastic services in the past and this one will be no exception. The goal of the crowdfunding campaign is to offer people minutes in exchange for a “donation”. In reality the funder will be getting minutes at a huge discounted rate. All funders will receive minutes 40% cheaper than what they are paying now and of course if your recipient of the call is online; T=the call is FREE! And the user face is super simple; even your Grandma can use it. The low, low rates combined with the user-friendly interface makes switching to BBee a no brainer. If you think this is too good to be true, check out the Indiegogo (http://igg.me/at/bbee) site. BBee team did a really outstanding job at providing visuals, media and content to explain the service and inform the users of what they are getting. The company’s transparency is beyond excellent.

In order to make this service a reality, BBee team needs one thing: Backers. He needs backers so bad he is basically giving away free minutes in exchange for backers’ support and encouragement. If you are able to help in any way or would like to talk about sponsorship options, please contact BBee team and be sure to check out the campaign where you can learn more about this amazing service. All funders will be able to get an exclusive service package and enjoy the free app! Check it out.

And for those who cannot help, he knows how far a Facebook “Like” or “Share” can travel. So every little bit counts. Thank you!

Announcing a Campaign to Fund a Trip for a Family Who Lost Mom



Houston, TX – August 14, 2014 – Stephen Green’s children, Mary (Age 10) & Matt (Age 7), lost their mother last year who died of a sudden heart attack. They took it very hard as their mother was a stay at home mom that daily worked with them on homework, cooked for them and drove them to school - loved them deeply. She was a wonderful Christian mother. Since then it has been a slow and hard recovery for them to get used to life without their mother - as well without their father being around all the time to comfort them.

Stephen had to move around for work a lot. Because his work is unsteady he optioned to leave his Children in the Philippines with his wife’s family (her two sisters) who loves and takes care of them deeply while at the same time instill in them good Christian values. He is capable to send them a good monthly allowance which pays for their home, monthly expenses, schooling, tutor and clothing as any good father should do. However it does not leave much for him to visit them and spend personal time with them so he is left to talking to his children by skype and phone call all the time.
   
Stephen is seeking a donation so he can visit his Children in the Philippines and spend time with them taking them on a nice vacation to Hong Kong where they can enjoy Disney Land Hong Kong, Ocean Park and the Hong Kong laser light show. At the same time he wants to introduce them to the cultural differences as he believes this will offer them the opportunity to learn about other cultures which is beneficial to future personal development. 

Because of financial reason Stephen has not visited his children in the Philippines since last Christmas / New Years and would like to visit by September 21st as his son’s birthday is September 25th (he missed his birthday last year).

Anything extra will go to his end goal (Below) and also to purchasing a nicer memorial stone tablet for his wife.

 Stephen’s end goal is to bring them back to the USA to study here (Houston, Texas) with target time around June 2015. He believes he can do this through his own hard efforts as I want to show his kids the value and rewards of working hard. However, any donation will be helpful and appreciated.
