There are a couple ways to help the Thomas family.

Nick Thomas.

(Lawrenceburg, Ind.) – A fundraising effort has been started to help a local family with medical expenses.

Lawrenceburg native Nick Thomas was recently diagnosed with stage 3 lung cancer as a non-smoker.

Thomas has spent over a decade working for Mike’s Carwash and has served the Lawrenceburg community for several years as a reserve police officer at the Lawrenceburg Police Department.

Community members can send direct donations to the Thomas family to help with medical expenses at https://venmo.com/u/CHRISTEN-THOMAS-0.

An Amazon list of household supplies, snacks and other items has also been set up to assist the family. https://www.amazon.com/registries/gl/guest-view/4UVU46YYC9XD.
