Long term member [MENTION=30711]jllundqu[/MENTION] has gotten bad news on the medical front, his wife has a rare and aggressive form of leukemia that requires immediate and costly treatments that the insurance mafia is already balking at.

The family is requesting donations to help with medical bills, here:

Let's see if we can rustle up the old RPF spirit from ten years back, where $25,000 could be raised in a day.

I chipped in $50

Is there a way to make this a charitable cause I could donate a portion of my regular cc purchases to?

 

[Origanalist]

I'm in, I dont know how to show it from my phone but mine was the same.

 

[phill4paul]

I'm in for $50. I didn't see the ticker raise, but am hoping it is just processing. (Edit: processed during refresh.) Prayers continue.

Good man, as you have gone through a similar situation yourself.

On that front, I hope all is well.

Twice now. Wouldn't wish it on an enemy let alone a brother and sister. Donated. Hope it helps.

 

[Cleaner44]

Done.

 

[jllundqu]

I love you guys. I truly consider you family. I hope one day to be able to repay you all in some fashion. Will update asap.

One more person for $50 will put it to an even $9,000

For the next two $20 I'll match with $5 dollars each for a total $50 to make $9000. Any takers?

No. You can't set up a non-profit to benefit an individual.

I was thinking something more along the lines of the amazon smile program(which allows you to donate a portion of purchases to a charity), but somehow directed to the OP cause.

The key word there is charity. Only non-profits qualify.
