|
|
Hey everyone, I read an article in the Korean Times today about a foreign teacher who was badly burned in a fire here in Seoul. 70% of his body is covered in 3rd degree burns and he has NO health insurance. His family and friends set up a website to try to raise money to help fund the estimated $100,000 of treatments that he will need.
I can't even imagine what this guy is going through. Please check his site and pass along to others:

U r the moron. Is there any proof this isn't a scam?
Edit: Cause if it's in a Korean newsrag it must be true.
Any credible sources? I'm happy to give a chunk of coin to somebody that needs it. I'm noy as stupid as some of you guys who throw money at every poor case out there. I hope some of you never get an email from Nigerian nobility.....

There is nothing that I can say to change the minds of those who think this is a scam except scream at the top my lungs, "THIS IS NOT A SCAM!"
So I will not bother with those people.
To everyone else, PLEASE DONATE!
Please. |

| Its 100% not a scam. I don't know him well but I met the guy a few times. I also saw the fire being extinguished in Haebanchon...It's a horrible situation for the guy and his family, they need any help they can get. |

Yes they do-it is called welfare (In Massachusetts I believe it is called MassHealth) |
