Default Question for Southwest Pilots.NON TA related

Does the SWA pilot group have a separate fund, or donation for helping SWA pilots in need?

At jetblue we set up the Blue Pilot Fund. Helps out when the unplanned and unexpected horrors of life hit. Welcome to the Blue Pilot Fund | Blue Pilot Fund

Anyhow, a good friend of mine is a former AT now SWA pilot and his wife has come down with breast cancer. He's burned out his sick time and I understand he's now turning in vacation as well to keep it all together before serious financial decisions need to be made. He will be out of work for a while while she recovers from full surgery in order to take care of their 3 kids. This will further stress the financial situation.

So, just wondering if you guys had something in place to help a brother out when it's needed? PM me or post it. I'll provide more detail when/if required.
