The Hicks family needs our help.

Ray Hicks received world-wide recognition for his storytelling but he and his family never benefited financially.

Ray’s widow, Rosa, has been diagnosed with leukemia and heart disease. And their son, Ted has diabetes and is now on dialysis. They cannot endure another winter with only wood heat, carrying water from the spring and using an outhouse.

Plans are underway to build an additional room for them with good insulation, indoor plumbing and oil heat. We hope to complete construction before winter sets in.

If you would like to contribute to The Ray and Rosa Hicks Fund, you can make an online donation or send a check to the Fund.
