Help Raise Funds for Terri Emerson - Stroke Victim

Donation protected
Terri Emerson, fellow student of ScreenwritingU, recently had a stroke at the young age of 54.

Terri taught second grade in Florida for 17 years and now, unable to walk without a walker, unable to type fluently, and unable to find all the right words, she is recuperating at home doing physical therapy in an effort to walk, talk and type again.

Unfortunately, Terri receives no income from the State of Florida and is having financial challenges meeting her day to day living expenses.  Terri is a screenwriter whose first produced movie was Bernie The Dolphin... BUT, screenwriters get paid very little for their first couple of scripts, so even though her movie is an international success, Terri’s financial rewards were slim.

Terri is a talented writer whose career was just taking off… and we know, if we can help get Terri through this financial crunch, that in time, she will recover and go on to write amazing scripts that will be made into movies or Binge Worthy TV shows.

Please,  pay it forward if you can to help Terri through this challenging time of her life.
