Donate to Bill Matthews-Beloved Husband, Father, Veteran, and Musician, organized by Michelle LaBrie Matthews

Dear Friends, We are reaching out during a difficult time to ask for your help and support. Bill Matthews has recently been admitted to hospice care, a decision that comes with both emotional and financial challenges. The cost of room and board at the hospice facility has become an unexpected burden, and we are seeking help to ensure he can remain in the compassionate environment where he is receiving the care and comfort he needs. Bill has lived an extraordinary life. He grew up along the shores the Chesapeake Bay and attended Washington College before being drafted to serve in Vietnam, where he answered the call of duty with courage and commitment. After returning from the war, he moved to New Hampshire and built a successful life as a father of 3 and the owner of a restaurant and inn, creating a welcoming space for locals and visitors alike. Music has always been at the heart of who Bill is. During his years in New Hampshire, he played at the legendary Folkway with the group Wright On Jazz. Later, he returned to the Eastern Shore, where he became a well-loved figure in Kent County’s music scene, performing with groups such as Banjo Man and Bill and Guys and Doll alongside Tom McHugh, Tom Anthony, and Sue Matthews. A man of strong character and unique charm, Bill has always loved good music, great company, and a fine cigar. For over 25 years, he has shared his life with his beloved wife, Irene, in Grasonville. Now, she is standing by his side during this journey, and we are asking for your help to stand with them during this challenging time. Any contribution you can make, no matter the size, will go directly toward the cost of care, helping to ease the financial burden on Irene and the family. If you are unable to donate, we ask that you share this campaign with others who may be able to help. Thank you for your generosity, your kindness, and for keeping Bill and his family in your thoughts. With gratitude, The Matthews Family Read more

Why GoFundMe Articles and URLs Appear on Our Website and How We Support Other GoFundMe Campaigns

At LFEBridge Foundation, we are dedicated to creating a platform where individuals and organizations can maximize their fundraising efforts. As part of our commitment to supporting a wide range of causes, we incorporate articles and URLs from GoFundMe into our website. Here’s why you might see GoFundMe content on our site, how it benefits the fundraising community, and our relationship with GoFundMe:

1. Amplifying Reach for Fundraising Campaigns

  • Increased Visibility: By featuring GoFundMe articles and URLs on our platform, we help increase the visibility of various fundraising campaigns. This additional exposure can attract more donors and supporters, helping campaigns achieve their goals more quickly.

  • Cross-Promotional Opportunities: Highlighting campaigns from GoFundMe allows us to support a broader spectrum of causes and connect with a wider audience. This cross-promotion benefits both the campaign organizers and potential donors looking for causes to support.

2. Supporting Campaign Growth

  • Advertising and Promotion: We understand the importance of visibility in successful fundraising. By showcasing GoFundMe campaigns, we provide an advertising platform that helps these campaigns reach potential donors who might not have discovered them otherwise.

  • Strategic Partnerships: Collaborating with GoFundMe and featuring their campaigns on our site strengthens the fundraising ecosystem, ensuring that worthwhile causes receive the attention and support they deserve.

3. Expanding Donor Networks

  • Broader Donor Base: Featuring a variety of campaigns from different platforms helps diversify and expand the donor base. This means more people can learn about and contribute to a variety of causes, ultimately driving higher engagement and donations.
