Help Korey Recover

Donation protected
We’re raising money to help my brother Korey recover from senseless street violence that would have caused December 7, 2020 to be a tragic day for him, for his family, and friends.

As an essential worker, he was finishing up a delivery and was shot in the back for no apparent reason, by a young man he didn’t know, speak to or ever meet.  He ran a full city block away fearing his life would end, while spitting up blood and asking anyone he could for help. Everyone refused. 

The only person that did help was an unknown housing authority worker with enough humanity and courage to involve himself with saving Korey’s life. We’re working hard to find out his name.  He decided to help someone in their greatest time of need and Korey considers that a rebirth.

Korey was rushed to the nearest hospital for emergency surgery from the gunshot that entered his back and exited his trachea while grazing his spine. Gratefully, he’s home recovering now, but life is a lot less manageable. The road to full recovery is long between the physical, mental, and emotional impact and subsequent therapy.  This journey will take everything he has but the outlook and his energy are positive.  With your help, he can get back to 100% through 2021.

We’re raising money to help Korey with the following because his income has been drastically affected by this incident: rent, household bills, groceries, transportation to his appointments and attorney fees while the investigation is open.
