Hi All,

I rarely ask our great community to help but a fellow RCSB'er Chad Veich (who would never ask for help himself) needs our assistance. 

Chad had been fighting an extreme case of Rheumatoid Arthritis which has broken down his immune system and causing all kinds of complications for the last couple of years. The good news is that the Mayo Clinic has agreed to take his case. The bad news is that this debilitating disease has not allowed him to work and has been draining his families finances to near nothing. He needs our help folks.

Luckily, Chad's brother has setup a Go Fund Me account on Chad's behalf to help him pay his part of the treatment and for expenses. Without this help Chad cannot afford to get the treatment he needs. 

I know many of you are on fixed incomes, but any help (no matter if it is $10 or $100) is greatly appreciated and helpful. Many of us have benefited from Chad's generosity and helpfulness here on RCSB and if we can give a little back that would be awesome. Below is a link to the Go Fund me campaign created by his brother. Please give what you can.


Many thanks for any assistance you can provide.

Mike

Chad has been very helpful to many modellers on this site.
A very decent guy, dig deep guys, even a small donation will help out here.

Yes, Chad helped me on the proper appearance of Stars and Bars on a previous model. Sent me a scaleable outline for them. Glad to help him out now. Lane
