Mary Ann from "Gilligan's Island" Needs Your Help

Actress Dawn Wells who played Mary Ann on "Gilligan's Island" needs your help.

The 79-year-old actress is in deep debt and struggling to pay nearly $200,000 in medical bills.  (She lost a ton of money in the 2008 financial crisis.)  According to People magazine, she allegedly suffered "an unexpected accident that required hospitalization for two months" and is looking to "alleviate penalties by the IRS" in order to cover her hospital costs.  She has no family to support her and has already lost her home, according to friend Dugg Kirkpatrick, who set up the GoFundMe page.

Ms. Wells is one of two castaways left from the cast of "Gilligan's Island."  The other is Tina "Ginger" Louise, who is now 84.
