Support for Matt Lavigne During Chemotherapy
Donation protected
Thank you friends, family, strangers and fellow tattoo artists,
we are calling on the global tattoo family to come together as we have for so many artists and friends, and friends/family to come together for a dear friend.
One of our Grim City Tattoo Club artists, Matt Lavigne was diagnosed in September with a highly aggressive cancer, within a week of being diagnosed; doctors had operated and removed three ribs from above his heart. The doctors were confident they removed all the cancer at the time, but now, they aren't so sure.
Matt started Chemotherapy this past Monday and will be undergoing the treatment every three weeks for an estimated five months.
As a Tattooer, we don't get sick leave, benefits or insurance, so this leaves Matt with no income.
We are asking all our tattoo artist friends and the industry overall, to show love to a fellow artist.
Friends & Family to support an incredible friend who is always there for you when you need someone.
Strangers to be kind to a man that definitely deserves it.
I personally want to thank every single one of you, whether you donate or not, for taking the time to read this and have Matt in your thoughts.
We appreciate whatever amount you can donate, and if you can't afford to donate, I ask you to share this campaign with your friends and family.
Don't hesitate to call on us when you or someone you love needs it, we will return the love.
Thank you.
