Jazz is a great friend to all and an amazing person. He gives so much love and deserves so much support. PLEASE share this campaign and donate - literally every bit helps. He shouldn't have to be going through this, and we're pulling for him so hard to get treatment

www.gofundme.com/f/4k6sa-help...

Fanart of JazzmanZ. He is a white-skinned humanoid with a green toadstool cap on the top of his head. He's wearing a red shirt, green jacket, and blue pants. He is walking forward and to the right, hands in his jacket pockets and a wistful look on his face.

Recently, Jazz was diagnosed with stage 4 esophageal gastrointestinal cancer. He is undergoing radiation treatment and is currently wheelchair bound after spinal surgery. He needs financial help to receive life-saving treatment and equipment.

Jazz is a cornerstone of the Multitap Mugen community, which has changed my life. He is very loving and kind, and a force of good. We're all pulling for him, and you can help.
Please share his campaign and donate toward his recovery.

Jazz has been diagnosed with cancer and needs some help. He's already so close to the goal, already over 80% of the way there. Even spreading the word is helpful, so please lend a hand if you can.

www.gofundme.com/f/4k6sa-help...

An edited screenshot of the Talking Time dialog screen from Clash at Demonhead on NES. The top screen has a portrait of Jazz's green mushroom persona, while the bottom has an edited screenshot of Tom Guycot, a skull-faced man, frowning. Text edited from the original game reads:

I'm Tom Guycott, the Chief of the Governors, and I'll be waiting for you to help Jazz get well!
