Support for the Van Ginkel Family

Frederick, MD

Story

As many of you know, Greg was diagnosed with ALS in January. He has kept a wonderful spirit and positive attitude through this new challenge. Currently, the family is in the midst of a home renovation to move the master bedroom & bathroom to the first floor. In addition, Jen had foot surgery on Friday July 12th and isn't able to walk or drive for several weeks. We are hopeful to lighten the load for this family to allow them to focus on their strength and each other. We will continue to make updates to this site as their needs change such as rides, grocery trips, visits, etc. so be sure to save this link and check back often! For now, meals a few times per week are most helpful to them. Feel free to use DoorDash / UberEats if you live out of town or have a busy schedule. Scroll down to the Care Calendar below and sign up for a date that works for you by selecting "I'll Help". Please be sure to review the description (food restrictions) & delivery instructions which will be visible when you sign-up. Everyone's help is so appreciated as we build the Van Ginkel village of support!
