Supporting Dr. Tamene Melkamu

Donation protected
Our dearest Tamene Melkamu, beloved father, husband, community leader, and friend has been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. Treatment options available will surely be expensive, and not be fully covered by insurance. The family could use your support in helping cover the finances for his treatment and ensuring he remains as comfortable as possible in his treatment process. Any amount helps!


The journey ahead will be tough. Please continue to keep your thoughts and prayers with Tamene and the family during this difficult time. Send prayers and positive energy to his home. 

Thank you in advance for your help!
