Stephen Boyes – Angel Date

On 5/17/1998

It is a perfect day to make these announcements being the 23 year anniversary of Stephen Boyes passing.

We have always worked with both Help Hope Live and with the Gift of Life Family House. I am proud to say we have implemented two exciting programs with our favorite charities. We could not have done this without you and your help.

We have created the Mary Jo Lovely Memorial Fund that will be administered by Help Hope Live. From this point on all the financial grants that we donate to people will be out of this fund. https://helphopelive.org/campaign/18719/

We have donated and pledged to continue to donate the money for 2 rooms at the Gift of Life Family House that will supply place for families stay while their family member is receiving an organ transplant.

Our goal has always been to support as many people as we can that are struggling to pay for the out of pocket expenses of an organ transplant. Mary Jo Lovely and Ken Lovely started Transplant Alliance because they felt it was wrong for people to be forced to fundraise to pay for an organ transplant. In many cases these people were forced to go bankrupt just to stay alive. Can you imagine being told your child needs a heart transplant and then being told you need $20,000 to cover what your insurance won’t?

Someone made the courageous decision to say YES to organ donation so someone else can live. With your help we can honor that donor by helping the recipient survive the the medical bills.
