Jason Needs Our Help!

Jason Baker is a 43 year-old man who is very ill. After years of battling Type II diabetes, Jason is in desperate need of a lifesaving kidney transplant in order to survive. Jason is one of the most kind and sincere people you will ever meet and he needs our financial support to help fund his transplant, as the cost of a transplant can be overwhelming.

Jason grew up in Jasper, Indiana and graduated from Jasper High School. He went on to the ITT Technical Institute where he studied Tool Engineering and then went on to study Automated Manufacturing. Jason has been working at OFS Brands for almost 18 years as a Special Concept Engineer. He has been married for over 17 years to his loving and supportive wife, Mecinda and they have 2 sons, Jordan and Colton.

Jason’s sister, Jennifer, will be donating one of her kidneys to Jason through a living kidney donor transplant. Funding this life saving procedure is a monumental task, as there will be many medical expenses not covered by health insurance: co-pays and deductibles, medical bills, transplant testing, donor expenses and Jason’s travel and lodging expenses to Indianapolis are quickly adding up. Jason will also be required to take costly post-transplant anti-rejection medications for the rest of his life. These out-of-pocket expenses are adding up to more than the Baker family can handle alone.

To help with the financial burden of Jason’s uninsured expenses, a fundraising campaign in his name has been established with Help Hope Live, a trusted nonprofit organization that has been providing community-based fundraising guidance to patients and their families for more than 30 years. All donations are tax deductible to the full extent allowed by law, are held by Help Hope Live in the Great Lakes Kidney Transplant Fund, and are administered by Help Hope Live for transplant-related expenses only.

Gratefully,

The family of Jason Baker, [email protected]
