Street Vendor Needs Help Buying Prosthetic Leg

Donation protected


My sister and I ran across Guillermo, a 47 year old street vendor in Madera, CA who has only one leg just last week. We saw his story on Twitter and learned more about him: 

Guillermo needs a prosthetic leg that is $16,000. The one he has right now is over ten years old and was only good for 4 years. He has continued using his worn out prosthetic leg because he has no other option.  Heartbroken, we thought we’d seek donations to make this man’s Christmas to get him back on his feet. 

Any amount donated makes a huge difference. A share can also get Guillermo the help he needs. Thank you for your time and support.

Sincerely, 

Fabiola & Jessica Ochoa 


For gofundme purposes:

My name is Jessica Ochoa and I am from Mendota California. We met Guillermo after hearing about his story so we decided to help him out. He is not related to me, just a new friend. The funds will go to the purchase of a new prosthetic leg for Guillermo. After the funds are transferred to my personal account the plan is to transfer them to Guillermos account.
