We all remember Success Kid:
Well now, he needs your help.
The dad of Sammy “Success Kid” Griner has been battling kidney disease since 2006. He is currently on dialysis 12 hours a day and is in dire need of a kidney transplant. Sammy’s mom Laney has created a GoFundMe page for her husband, specifically not mentioning her Internet-famous son, as she wanted to keep the focus on her husband and didn’t want to exploit or capitalize on her son’s minor fame.
Asking for $75,000, the campaign has gone viral (sound familiar?) and the family has received over $100,000 in donations in just 15 days.
The campaign is still open and active, so come on, everyone!
