Thumb Reattachment: Help Ben get back to shaking cocktails

Donation protected
Dear Friends, Family, and Kind Strangers,

We are reaching out to you today with heavy hearts and a plea for help. Our dear friend Ben, an incredible bartender and mixologist, recently experienced a devastating accident. While helping with some tasks on the island resort where he works, Ben suffered a severe injury, accidentally cutting off his thumb with a machete.

Ben is not just any bartender; he is a true artist behind the bar. His creativity and passion for mixology have brought joy to countless visitors at our island resort. His smile, dedication, and extraordinary talent make him a beloved figure in our community.

This unexpected and traumatic event has left Ben facing a long road to recovery. The surgeons have assured us that with immediate and specialized surgery, there is a good chance of reattaching his thumb and restoring its functionality. However, the cost of this life-changing procedure is overwhelming, estimated at $20,000.

Ben has always been the first to lend a helping hand, to listen, and to make our days brighter with his amazing cocktails and warm spirit. Now, he needs our help. We are rallying together to raise the funds necessary for his surgery and to support him through this challenging time.

Every donation, no matter the size, will make a difference and bring us closer to our goal. Your generosity will not only help Ben get the medical care he urgently needs but also aid in his journey to recovery and his return to doing what he loves most.

Please consider contributing and sharing this campaign with your networks. Let's come together to help Ben get back behind the bar, creating the drinks that bring us all together.

Thank you for your kindness and support.

With gratitude, Rimba team and Ben's Friends and Family.
