Mark explained his grandmother needed expensive surgery and he was raising funds through a GoFundMe. “She needs a huge surgery, and I started a GoFundMe, but I’ve been trying to promote it,” he said. Mary and Anastacia decided to help by sharing the GoFundMe link.

Spreading the Word

They visited Mark’s grandmother in the hospital and then shared the GoFundMe link widely. Anastacia even posted their story on Reddit and Twitter, hoping it would go viral. “Maybe it could go viral? Let’s try Reddit,” she suggested
