In Support of The Brinkman’s

The Brinkman’s
Hello family and friends.
Recently, the Brinkman family has been faced with a challenging situation. Kelly was in a serious car accident and is currently in the ICU. Her recovery is going to take time and a lot of love and support from all of us. Mike and the kids are doing their best to stay strong, but they need our help to get through this tough time. Together, we can make a big difference for the Brinkmans by showing them we're here for whatever they need.
There are a few ways you can help. Whether you have time to volunteer or can prepare a meal for the family, your support will be greatly appreciated. Please take a moment to consider how you can be a part of this supportive community effort. Let's rally around the Brinkmans and show them they're not alone.
  1. Choose from Support Page options
  2. 'Share' to Spread the Word to family and friends
  3. 'Follow' Updates to stay informed

We will be adding in more meals and needs as we have updates and have a better understanding of what progressions Kelly making and her recovery looks like. 

For Meals/Food: peanut free is a must (allergy in the household) and ideally gluten free and made with fruits and vegetables is preferred. Plan to drop meals on your designated day from 3-5pm in the cooler on the Brinkman's front step (if you need to arrange another time, please let us know.) Anything dropped that day will include meals for that night, and breakfast, lunch or snack items for the next day. (Ex. if you pick Sunday lunch, you'll be dropping food Sunday 3-5pm for it to be eaten/prepped easily by the kids for school on Monday.)

Thank you for rallying around the Brinkman family!
