Cinematical spreads the word of a fundraiser for D.K. Holm, an author, contributor to Kevin Smith’s Quick Stop Entertainment site, and film critic for Vancouver Voice. Unfortunately, Holm has been diagnosed with esophageal cancer. As is the case with one-sixth all Americans and most freelance writers, he does not have health insurance. While the cancer is treatable, it will cost thousands of dollars in chemotherapy and surgery.

Hence, some of Holm’s friends are throwing a benefit to help him. The fundraiser will take place at Portland’s best independent movie house, Cinema 21, on April 27. For further details on this important cause, please visit here.
