Please help Mr. Projector!


We are raising money for our friend and Battalion member who was injured during the hurricane. Aaron (some of you might know him as Mr. Projector) had a 1 vehicle incident, obtained some nasty road rash, and was released from the emergency room on crutches. One week later, Aaron was unable to move and was back in the hospital with crippling pain. He developed a rare and very serious Staphylococcus infection that spread to his kidneys, heart, and brain. The doctors performed a risky open heart surgery to remove as much of the bacteria as possible. He has now been in the hospital for over three weeks and is expected to be there at least another month. Aaron's hospital bills are already piling up at an outrageous rate (close to $500,000). Aaron has no medical insurance. We are asking for any assistance you are able to give, if that be money (check or cash), fundraising ideas, or expert advice on the medical system/billing process. We will be passing around a donation bucket at this Sunday's ride. Please help if you can.

So sorry to hear about Aaron's situation. This is massive.
Can someone please get in touch with Scooter-Relief.org?
