Well4Weary

I just stumbled upon a new endeavor to help people with crushing medical bills.  It is called Well4Weary.org and was just launched on May 24, 2012.

A sign of class?  One of the first descriptions online:

“Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It’s not.”
― Dr. Seuss, The Lorax
Their "we are" statement is simple enough, as well:

We are a non-profit corporation that gives money to patients who are enduring the fight of their life with their health. We feature the details of their hardship on our website, and publish their stories for anonymous individuals to read.  When they find a patient they would like to help, they can donate specifically to them. 
Our featured patient is William, a 56 year old from Virginia who is suffering from cancer.  Click here for more details on his story and how you can help. 
Are you someone who needs financial assistance due to a medical hardship?  Perhaps you are suffering from cancer, and in need of life-sustaining treatments.  Or maybe you have been in a car accident and are requiring multiple and expensive surgeries. 
Whatever the reason- see our recipient page to find out how you can be a recipient on this site.

Currently, four persons serve on the Board of Directors.  They are actively seeking "an experienced physician to serve...  If you or anyone you know might be interested, please email shannon@well4weary.org."
