Help Support Deb and Her Family While She Heals

Dr. Deb Schmidt Hinkle, William R. Orthwein, Jr. Family Animal Nutritionist at the Saint Louis Zoo, was robbed and struck by the assailant's car in mid-April. Deb was taken to a nearby hospital where she remains with serious injuries but is making incremental progress daily. It'll be a long road to recovery and we ask everyone to please keep Deb, her husband Travis Hinkle, their son Eli, and all of their family and friends in your thoughts. All funds raised will support Deb and her family during her recovery. Update as of 4/27: Dr. Deb Schmidt is out of ICU and making slow progress day by day. Travis and his son, Eli, are very grateful for all the support during these hard times.
