Nielsen Family COVID Recovery Fund

Donation protected

Hi Friends,

I've started a GoFundMe for my good friends, the Nielsen Family. As some of you may know, Paul contracted COVID-19and has been sick since April 22, 2020. He spent a week in the hospital fighting to get better. He is still recovering from the
after-effects of the virus which include fatigue, low blood pressure and low oxygen.

Paul is a self-employed contractor of a small business. The family does not qualify for unemployment or small business help, and  they have no health insurance or sick pay.  They estimate that they need around $5,000  to help to get through the next couple of months with medical bills/supplies and household bills, as they will only have minimal income in June and July from Edie's part-time  job. Paul hopes to start working a little in June and ramp-up to a normal schedule as he hopefully heals by the end of June/early July.

Paul, Edie and Dasha need our help, so I hope you will consider donating. I would love nothing more than to call Edie and Paul in a few days to tell them that people have rallied around them, and funds are available. Please share this link with friends and family (any amount will help).

Thank you for your prayers, your support and
for being willing to touch their lives and make a difference when they need it most!
