40 Years of Giving, Now They Need Us: Support Robin and John
Donation protected
For over 40 years, Robin and John Tanner have been beloved members of the Benicia community. Always first to lend a hand, they have touched countless lives with their generosity, kindness, and unwavering support. Now, they need our help.
John, a skilled general building contractor, has been battling a severe foot infection for the past seven years. This has left him unable to work or even walk consistently, despite enduring numerous surgeries, treatments and medical interventions. His condition has recently worsened, with his leg swelling inexplicably, and doctors are still searching for answers.
Robin, the happiest and most giving person many of us know, has had to step into the role of full-time caregiver for John. This has left her unable to work, compounding their financial strain.
The Tanners are drowning in medical bills, copays, and the cost of daily living, with Social Security falling far short of their needs. They face the heartbreaking decision to sell their beloved home, but before they can do so, they have immediate needs to keep afloat. The financial stress is overwhelming, and they need help now to unbury themselves from this crisis.
As they face this immense challenge, let’s rally together as a community to support Robin and John the way they have always supported us. Our goal is to provide them with the financial relief they need to cover medical bills, household expenses, and stay afloat as they navigate these difficult times.
Every donation, big or small, will make a difference in their lives. Please consider giving and sharing their story to help this incredible couple find hope for the future.
Let’s show Robin and John that they are not alone in this fight. Together, we can give them the strength to face the road ahead.
