Help us fly home!

Donation protected
We are Chris and Matt DePorter.  Two and half years ago we were married under a weeping willow at a Japanese garden located in the beautiful Delaware Park in Buffalo, NY.  Since then our lives have taken us in many directions. Through the positive and negative challenges of life we made the bold decision to move across the country and start over.  Now almost two years later, Reno has provided us with the happiness we had been searching for.  

 This January, we are hoping to make the cross country trek (via plane) back home to the Buffalo area to attend a wedding of one of our closest friends, visit family for a birthday, and also celebrate our marriage with family members (most of whom have never even met before) who had missed our wedding day.  

 We are asking for your help. In the midst of all the planning, our economic situation took a turn and we have come to the sad realization that this may not happen for us on our own.  So we ask you, dear friend, to donate!  Every dollar counts and we will be forever grateful.  To be reunited with our friends and family in celebration of love, life, and perseverance would be the ultimate gift.  Please help us overcome this challenge!

Reaching our goal helps us with:
Air fare, car rental, 1 week of lost wages for time off, and also helps with the cost for our own family celebration.
