The Background
After years of brushing his teeth as Mom ordered, Doug went into the dentist and got hit with some very hard and difficult news: major dental work was needed. Big problem: Doug doesn't have dental insurance, and due to an ongoing war between insurance companies and dental offices, rates are ridiculous.
What He Needs Done
The most pressing issue is a root canal in a very prominent tooth in his mouth. It's causing him exceptional pain. Due to the further pain associated with the procedure, sedation would be lovely.
But there's more! Two cavities need to be filled, along with some other misc. work.
Why You Should Help
Cost of living is insane right now here in Vancouver, and a fella who works two-part time jobs can keep his head above water, but simply can't afford huge expenses. This is a chance for us all to really communicate to Doug how important he is in our lives, and to put money where our mouths are.
I'm Pretty Broke...
Hey, I hear you. I am too. But even $5 means a lot. Even $1. Passing it on to people and really explaining why this is important would help. But more to that: what if it was you? What if you were in pain?
IF ALL OF DOUG'S FRIEND GAVE $4, THIS CAMPAIGN WOULD BE FULLY FUNDED AND DOUG WOULD BE SET AND GRATEFUL!
