Help Dolores Westfall
Donation protected
PLEASE SEE MY LATEST CAMPAIGN UPDATE ABOUT DOLORES. SHE PASSED AWAY ON 12/23/2016.
I came to know about Dolores Westfall's story through the LA Times article titled "Too poor to retire, too young to die" (Too poor to retire and too young to die ) and I was greatly moved by her situation. I really admired her undying spirit and attitude. Nobody should be subjected the rude shock of having all their life's savings being decimated right when it is time for retirement, let alone a 79-year old.
I wanted to help her financially(within my means) and I contacted the author of the LA Times article Mr.John Glionna. This fundraiser will benefit Dolores and it will give her some financial cushion and may take some load off her shoulders. I will work with Mr.Glionna to deliver the funds to Dolores.
As always, anything helps. Please donate whatever you can without hurting your own pockets. I am sure this will earn you some good karma.
ALSO, PLEASE SHARE ON FACEBOOK SO THAT IT REACHES MORE PEOPLE.
SUMMARY:
1)I live and work in Houston, TX.
2) I am not related to Dolores, I read the article about her on LA Times and reached out to the author about helping Dolores.
3) This account was setup to help her. I HAVE NO INTENTION OF KEEPING THE MONEY FOR MYSELF.
4) I sent a portion of the funds to Dolores yesterday and posted pictures of the transaction receipt.
5) I will provide Dolores direct access to the account so that she can withdraw the remaining funds herself.
6) Dolores will decide how she wants to spend her funds.
I had to update the campaign with the above information because GoFundme froze the campaign funds.
