Marie's Medical Fund

Marie Elrich and her husband need our help for medical bills! Marie was sick all summer and while she is mostly better, she was hit with medical debt after years of financial struggle. I, Caity, am coming alongside Marie to coordinate this fundraiser with her. We would appreciate anything you can give.

A little background:

Marie and her husband are both hard-working people who have struggled financially through their married life. They had massive student loan debt, which they paid off fully in 2022 by working multiple jobs and living frugally. They stepped out in faith to buy their first home and were trying to start a family. Then Marie got sick with a mystery illness this summer and had to go into the ER several times. She also needed surgery.

Although she has medical coverage, the deductible is so high that she and her husband are now back in unexpected debt. Despite working multiple jobs again, it will take them 3-4 years to pay these bills off. This will delay them starting a family.

That's where we come in. Together, we can raise money for this hard-working, struggling couple to help them get out of debt. Marie and her husband are trusting the Lord to provide. If you know Marie or enjoy her books, please give. $5, $50, or $500...whatever the Lord lays on your heart. Anything helps. Let's be the tangible answer to their prayers.
