Meet our Fighter in Focus: Jose Cruz Gonzalez.
Jose is 59 years old and has spent his life working with his hands to provide for his family. As the sole provider for his household, he has never stopped showing up for the people he loves.
Right now, Jose is battling multiple myeloma.
When our team connected with Jose and his family, there was an extra layer of care needed, as they do not speak English. That is where Melina (shown on the far right of the photo) came in. She is our new translator working alongside our MOB, and her presence made all the difference. Because of her, Jose and his family could be truly heard and supported.
That is what this community is built on. Not just writing a check, but showing up in a way that says: we see you, and you are not alone.
Please keep Jose and his family in your prayers this week. And if you feel led to support families like his, 100% of your donation goes directly to families in need right here in Tarrant County. π
