Jeff Sachs

In Memoriam

It is with tremendous sadness we report that Jeff Sachs passed away on September 29, 2026.

Family and friends have worked closely with Help Hope Live to fundraise for uninsured medical expenses associated with catastrophic injuries. They began their partnership with Help Hope Live because the nonprofit provides both tax-deductibility to the full extent allowed by law and fiscal accountability to contributors.

Jeff’s family has been humbled by the outpouring of love from their community. Please know that no additional donations in memory of Jeff are needed. But your support has made a measurable difference in their lives.

In loving care and remembrance, thank you for your kindness and generosity.

Meet the Sachs Family – Jeff, Kristen, and Evelyn

Jeff has been living with quadriplegia since 2013 when he sustained a spinal cord injury while diving into the ocean. He is ventilator-dependent, and is paralyzed from the neck down. His wife Kristen is his caregiver and together with their daughter Evelyn, they reside in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Your donation will help the Sachs family continue to thrive while living life with Jeff’s injury. The out-of-pocket costs to maintain Jeff’s health are enormous and on-going. Insurance only covers a portion of these costs. Things like physical therapy, monthly supplies, and home modifications are all expenses the Sachs family must shoulder themselves, and this is where your donations make a difference.

To help with these costs, a fundraising campaign in Jeff’s honor has been established with Help Hope Live, a nonprofit organization that has been assisting the transplant community for 30 years. In 2000, they expanded their mission to include those who have sustained a catastrophic injury. All contributions are tax-deductible to the full extent allowed by law, are held by Help Hope Live in the Southwest Spinal Cord Injury Fund, and are administered by Help Hope Live for injury-related expenses only. Please consider helping Jeff live his best life possible by contributing to his Help Hope Live fundraising campaign.

Your donation and generosity are greatly appreciated.
