How you can help





Share this Page



We understand more than anyone that money is tighter than ever these days and there have been plenty of times I would love to donate to a worthy cause - but I just didn't have ANY available funds. But sharing is easy!

Perhaps you know someone who also knows Jacob who would love to help and has the means, or maybe someone who has been affected by cancer themselves. We greatly appreciate anyone willing to pass this info along - Sharing is Caring!




Donate to make Jake's wish come true



More than anything right now Jacob wants to have the iPhone 13 Pro. He’s got lots of friends and family that have iPhones that want to be able to facetime with him and he’s also going to have a LOT of time on his hands recovering in the hospital and is looking for a distraction from the pain. I told Jacob I would work on earning the money to get him one, but realized it would take me a while and by then he may even be out of the hospital! So that’s where the idea of this fundraiser comes from - I didn’t want to just ASK for money for something like a phone, but so m any have reached out wanting to help and I figured this is something I can do to maybe earn this phone a little bit faster!



Help with Medical Bills



We have set up a GoFundMe to help cover the growing costs of out of pocket medical bills, all of which will go directly to pay the many hospital and doctor (and testing, labwork, prescriptions, etc co-pays) as well as incidental medical expenses such as home health nursing aids, wheelchair, etc.



send jacob a note of encouragement



Sometimes an encouraging note or letter or care package is enough to brighten one's day and help them to push through the pain. How much fun is it to get something heartfelt and fun in the mail? Or even email? Send an email to vanessa.amber.kay@gmail.com to pass along your well wishes and I can send you Jacob's email address or physical address if you prefer to send an actual letter, card or care package!



Donate Directly



Some people have relayed to me that they prefer to donate directly to the cause rather than go through the GoFundMe - or purchasing a calendar, and thus avoiding processing and administrative fees.

If you would like to donate directly, that is of course greatly appreciated. My own venmo username is @Vanessa-Kay (last 4 digits of phone are 2818) and Zelle is vanessa@hondaphotoart.com Please let me know when you donate what you would like your money to go towards!


If you'd like to donate to Jacob directly, I know he would be thrilled with that and to have some choice as to how he spends it! His venmo address is @Jacob-Kay-11 (last 4 digits of his cell are 9214).



help feed mom



Jacob's mom Angela, has been by his side tirelessly, throughout his chemo and especially this surgery and very difficult recovery. She has gone for days without a real meal or a decent night's sleep. Because of Jacob's weakened immune system he's not allowed any other visitors. I'm working on setting up a meal train for his mom, but in the meanwhile if you want to send a DoorDash or GrubHub giftcard to Angela so she can order a bite to eat while she stays by Jacob's side, I know that will also be greatly appreciated! Those of you who have been in this situation know that it can be very difficult to find time to leave to grab a bite to eat, especially when everything seems to be going so wrong!
