My husband Jackie needs your help. Jackie suffers from lupus that has now attacked his kidneys, causing kidney failure. Jackie’s battle with lupus has come to a critical point, he must have a kidney transplant.
We are asking our family and friends to join us in fundraising for the nonprofit Help Hope Live to help off-set the expenses Jackie will face immediately after surgery and including the cost of lodging near the transplant center where he is required to stay for a minimum of 30 days following his discharge. Jackie has always lived a productive life despite his health condition. Jackie has been an entrepreneur for many years. His attitude and lifestyle has helped many people to start their own business through different style changes. Jackie has helped so many people over the years and now he is the one who needs our help now.

While Jackie has health insurance, many transplant expenses are surprisingly not covered; such as the anti-rejection medication he will need to take for the rest of his life post transplant. Jackie has been told to anticipate upwards of significant funds just for the medication alone.
Your donation to Help Hope Live in honor of Jackie Akins can help ease the financial burden of his transplant and allow him to focus on a healthy recovery and a long life ahead with his family and friends.
