Help for Harold

Donation protected
Hi Neighbors, I'm Tiffany. Just one week ago, I witnessed a distressing incident when an elderly gentleman, Harold, took a serious fall. Without hesitation, I rushed to his side, remaining by his side until the ambulance arrived. The very next day, I felt compelled to visit him at his apartment building to ensure his well-being. What I discovered was truly concerning; Harold had a broken dominant wrist, head stitches, and was unable to care for himself.

In the past seven days, I, along with some remarkable friends and neighbors, have been diligently checking in on Harold, providing multiple daily meals and much-needed support. Unfortunately, he has suffered two more falls and is currently hospitalized. I've reached out to a fantastic non-profit organization that is assisting him in accessing the services and care he desperately needs.

However, the mounting medical bills, along with his dire living conditions, present a significant challenge. Harold requires a new mattress, and his apartment urgently needs thorough cleaning and organization due to the potential health hazards it poses.

Harold is not just a neighbor; he's a beloved member of our community. Many of you have likely encountered him during walks or at the local diner, as he has been a part of Bay Ridge for decades. In the past week, I've come to appreciate Harold's unique charm, and his life story is truly captivating. He was a reporter and photographer, an advocate for peace and environmental causes, whose work touched every aspect of city life. He possesses a deep passion for astronomy, physics, books, musicals, puppets, collectibles, and so much more.

Today, I'm reaching out to our community to ask for your support in helping Harold, a cherished individual who has shown unwavering love for Bay Ridge. Your generosity can make a significant difference in improving his quality of life and ensuring he receives the care and assistance he deserves.
