Help Ricky Breathe

Father Ricky Gerena has been a staple of our community for decades. He has always shown how kindness and dedication can help all of us move forward to better, more positive times.

Although Ricky is currently at home recovering, he had a serious emergency where required medical intervention at Professional Hospital and Hospital Auxilio Mutuo. Ricky suffered from a Biliary Obstruction and was in critical condition for over two weeks. The obstruction caused damage in multiple organs and his heart was functioning at 20% capacity. Ricky has been through the worst of it, but recovery will take time and effort He needs our help to cover the costs associated with the medical emergency and the recovery efforts.

Throughout his life, F. Ricky has put others first and has defended the less fortunate and the needy. As a priest of the Catholic Church in Puerto Rico, he has been there through myriad natural disasters and has constantly advocated for providing aid to those who need it, and for helping each other in times of need.

In his time of need, it's only fair that we should do the same. He needs our help, any little bit counts. Please consider donating or sharing this fundraiser so we can help alleviate the cost of his medical bills.
