🇺🇸 SUPPORT MEL GILMAN JR. 🇺🇸

A MARINE • A VETERAN • A HUSBAND • A FATHER • A GRANDFATHER • A FIGHTER

Mel Gilman Jr. proudly served our country in the United States Marine Corps as an avionics electronics technician. He spent many years as a volunteer firefighter and first responder. Today, Mel is a disabled veteran battling stage 4 colorectal cancer.

Mel is an amazing man with a heart of gold. He’s always willing to help anyone even if it means he goes without. He has spent his entire life helping others in any way he can with nothing expected in return. He’s a selfless, hardworking, family man that needs the communities help. It’s our turn to show him the love and support he has shown everyone else throughout the years.

We are asking for your help to support Mel and his family during this incredibly difficult time.

Donations can help with the expenses and everyday challenges that come with his fight.

No donation is too small. Every dollar, prayer, and kind gesture means more than you know.

Thank you for standing with Mel.

🇺🇸 Semper Fi 🇺🇸

In the past 2 months he’s been hospitalized 3 times. His care team and appointments are an hour to two hours away from their home. He applied for his VA disability, a year and a half ago and still hasn’t received a decision. With the rapid increase in appointments, medication co-pays, and travel, it’s become a huge financial burden for him & his family.

Please continue to pray for Mel and his family.

Lets help take one less worry off their plate.

We appreciate any and all donations.
