Hello!
I set this account up to help pay for uninsured medical expenses and the ongoing physical therapy I still need as a result of the cervical spinal cord injury I sustained on May 1, 2004. I live in Santa Rosa, CA and in my spare time I coach the Santa Rosa Black Roses women’s rugby team. Since my injury there have been so many people including family, teammates, friends, and strangers who have helped me out financially, physically and mentally. That help has kept me healthy and active and for that I am eternally grateful. Thank you all!

I chose to fundraise with HelpHOPELive Catastrophic Injury Fund in part because HelpHOPELive provides both tax-deductibility and fiscal accountability to his contributors. Contributors can be sure that funds contributed will be used only to pay or reimburse medically-related expenses.
