“Gilligan’s Island” star Dawn Wells, who was known for her iconic role as Mary Ann Summers on the popular series, is reportedly seeking financial help from her fans. TMZ reported the former “Gilligan’s” star is seeking almost $200,000 from fans through a GoFundMe page created by a close friend. The actress is allegedly “desperate” for the funds following an “unexpected accident that required hospitalization for two months,” according to the GoFundMe page biography. Wells’ friend told TMZ that in the accident, the actress broke her knee and is in the process of recovering from complications she suffered from a surgery to repair her injury.

A homeless man who famously helped a stranded motorist in Philadelphia by giving her his last $20 to buy gas is panhandling once again and using drugs. And Johnny Bobbitt, 35, says he has no access to the hundreds of thousands of dollars raised for him by strangers throughout the world who were touched by his story and donated to a GoFundMe campaign. GoFundMe is investigating whether the $400,000 raised was mismanaged, and said it will work to ensure Bobbitt “receives the help he deserves and that the donors’ intentions are honored.” Bobbitt gained worldwide attention when he used his last $20 to fill up the gas tank of stranded motorist Kate McClure in November 2017. McClure and her boyfriend Mark D’Amico started a GoFundMe campaign in return to
