Donation protected
Mario Ruiz (40) A delivery driver who was shot and robbed in Chicago's Humboldt Park area on 2/2/23. He was delivering food, when a man approached him and demanded his property at gunpoint. The robber took all his money and cell phone before shooting him. Mario is still currently in the hospital. The bullet went through both his legs. The shot shattered his knee and shin bone and then the bullet went through to the other leg and fractured the other shinbone. He has currently had two surgeries, bolts and metal plates have been inserted into his legs. He's going to be in a wheel chair for some time and with some physical therapy hopefully he will soon be able to walk again. Until then he won't be able to work.

We are seeking your help, for this is going to be a long road to recovery mentally and physically. He was the sole provider for his family, Funds will be given directly to him to cover bills, medical and recovery expenses.
