(Our friends hosting the Bunko Tournament asked me to post this.)

Dear Friends and Loved Ones of the Joppa Family,
 
So many people have expressed the desire to help the Joppa family during these times that a few of us have gotten together and are attempting to put on a fundraiser on Sunday, November 20th. We are hosting a Bunko Tournament as a way to come together to help the Joppas with the costs involved in paying the medical bills for Kelly’s chemotherapy and breast cancer fight. I have never played Bunko, but should be fun and Kelly likes to play!!
 
A common question is, ‘What is the need?’ Well, thankfully they have insurance, however there is a $50 co-pay every time Kelly goes to the doctor. Additionally, the medications come to about $100 a week. This means that monthly this fight of cancer along with the pain of cancer costs $400-$600 extra month. Bills are mounting up quickly. It is our hope that this small fundraiser can at least help a little with these costs and show our support and love to Kelly, Eric and the kids. This is a very small way to love Kelly and the family and relieve some of the burden. None of us can understand truly what they are going through but we can help be there in this time.
 
Please get your friends together, help create a team of 12 people or come play yourself.  There are many spots available and this event can only be successful with help from friends and loved ones. The Joppas need your help so let’s love them and have some fun.
 
Sincerely,
Joel Archer
Family Friend and Nathan’s “Uncle Joel”
