Ma's Green Living is hosting a silent auction from Monday, January 25 through Saturday, January 30 to raise funds to help cover medical and living expenses for Phil Hellyer, a member of the Ma's family. We have some wonderful art pieces as well as crystals and jewelry - come on down during business hours and make a bid!

Phil Hellyer is the owner and sole employee of Phil's Auto Repair at the Defense Language Institute. He is also the stepdad of Nicole Martin (owner of Ma's Green Living) and the husband of Linda Hellyer (co-owner of Gypsea). On the morning of Tuesday, January 19, Phil suffered a major seizure. When he arrived at the hospital, doctors determined he had a brain mass that required surgery, which was conducted on January 21. Phil is now home and beginning the process of recovery.

Phil's Auto Repair is closed indefinitely, which puts a great financial strain on him and his wife, Linda, who is caring for him. With the loss of Phil’s income and the increasing medical expenses, meeting medical bills and day-to-day expenses is extremely daunting. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. If you would like to make a contribution online, Nicole Martin has set up a GoFundMe account here.
