He came into this world kicking and screaming as most children do and gave his mother a run for her money. As a young man, he was called to serve a voluntary mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Birmingham, England. When he returned home from England, he continued to engage in several voluntary service positions. Jim finds joy in the simple things in life; his most beloved passion is sailing. If the wind is good, you’ll find him on the water.

Jim is a family man, he loves his children and grandchildren with all his heart and soul. He is the kind of guy who would give you the shirt off his back and expect nothing in return. The motto Jim lives his life by is, “You catch more flies with honey than you do with vinegar. So treat everyone you meet with kindness”.

Currently, Jim is facing several health-related issues. Unfortunately, his liver and kidneys have written their letters of resignation and have chosen to check out. Due to this, Jim is facing a long road of medical surgeries and recovery. With an impending heart surgery and double organ transplant, he is now asking for your compassion and empathy for his situation. Family and friends of Jim Hild are raising money for the nonprofit Help Hope Live to fund uninsured medical expenses associated with transplantation.

Jim has chosen to fundraise for Help Hope Live in part because Help Hope Live assures fiscal accountability of funds raised and tax deductibility to the full extent allowed by law for contributors. Contributors can be sure donations will be used to pay or reimburse medical and related expenses. To make a tax-deductible donation to this fundraising campaign, click on the Give button.
