Hi, my name is Josh Gibson. We're a family of six in Western North Carolina. I live with moderate to severe chronic pain due to previous injuries and recently lost my job after hurting my back at work. My wife Nichole and I are chefs at a Charter school where we serve lunch to a couple hundred children every school day. I ended up hurting my back this past February and haven't been able to return to work as of now and won't be able to until August when school is back in session. We've already been struggling since hurricane Helene caused havoc in our town and have not been able to get our finances in good standing since then. My mom was displaced after the storm and is currently living with us. Our power is set to be disconnected in which we owe $2000 to Duke energy. We have until the 29th to pay $1700 which we don't have as well as the need for groceries, car payment which is two months behind and car repairs. Our car has significant repairs needed in order to pass the emissions inspection so the tag and registration can be up to date. I don't know where else to turn for help and . Hopefully I'll be able to work soon and put this difficult time behind us. Thank you for listening and please only donate if you feel led to. We're grateful for any help but absolutely please pray for the Gibson family.
