Malibu High graduate Jacob Park

Kimberly Cordova, a Malibu High graduate, has created a GoFundMe campaign raising money to alleviate medical costs for her boyfriend Jacob Park’s medical expenses. He currently battles with stage 3 brain tumor in his brain stem, which makes removal impossible. Instead, Park—also a Malibu High grad—just finished a six-week radiation treatment at the University of California at Los Angeles. He will continue a stronger chemo therapy in upcoming weeks. 

Money raised from the GoFundMe will go toward Jacob’s medical expenses (including emergency room visits, medications, and physical and emotional therapy) and three organizations that specialize in brain cancer research: National Brain Tumor Society, City of Hope and Choose Hope.
