Fellow Vol friends, I need your help
My fraternity has caught wind of a family that is in desperate need, and the Greek community at MTSU has adopted this family for the Holidays.
Vernon is a hard working man that has been trying to provide for his family of five.
He works at Amazon during the week and Walmart during the weekends. He does not have a car, so he walks to work every day.
Recently, he was hit by an unknown SUV - a hit and run. The injuries he has sustained are as follows:
Shattered hip and pelvis
Broken right ankle and leg
Hematoma of the right lung
Torn ACL and MCL
Thirteen broken ribs
Depressed skull fracture
Brain bleed
Loss of over 1000 ccs of blood
His family is homeless, his wife was recently diagnosed with thyroid cancer, and one of his three home-schooled children has a mild case of Asperger's syndrome. His wife cannot attend radiation treatments until Vernon has recovered, and his kids are staying with friends at the moment, because they don't have a home.
Upon Vernon's release from the hospital, he will have no where to rehab his injuries or provide shelter for his family.
Our goal is to raise enough money to get this family proper housing.
I know what this website is capable of, which is why I bring this to your attention.
