Title: “Empowering Carlos: From Handyman to Baseball Fanatic, Our Rock”
Introduction: Hello everyone,
I’m Gina, and I want to share the story of Carlos Giani—a man who wears many hats. Carlos is not just a stroke survivor; he’s a pillar of strength, resilience, and love. Here’s why your support matters:
Carlos, the Handyman: Carlos has fixed leaky faucets, patched up walls, and kept our community running smoothly. As the resident manager, he’s the go-to person for everything—from broken light bulbs to clogged drains. His hands have built more than repairs; they’ve built connections.
Carlos, the Baseball Enthusiast: On sunny afternoons, you’ll find Carlos at the local baseball field, cheering on his son, Vinnie. Baseball isn’t just a game; it’s a bond between father and son. Carlos’s eyes light up when Vinnie steps up to bat, and his cheers echo across the bleachers. Your donation ensures that Carlos won’t miss a single game during his recovery.
Carlos, the Supporting Husband: Life threw us a curveball when I faced mental health challenges. Carlos stood by my side, unwavering. He cooked comforting meals, listened patiently, and held our family together. Now, it’s our turn to support him.
Vinnie’s Idea: Stepping Up: Our son, Vinnie, had an idea—one that reflects Carlos’s strength. Vinnie wanted to be the “man of the house” while Carlos focuses on healing. So, he set up this fundraiser. It’s not just about funds; it’s about community, love, and resilience.
Why We Need Your Help:
Medical Costs: Carlos’s hospital bills are mounting. Your contribution directly eases this burden.
Therapy and Adaptations: Funds will cover physical therapy, speech therapy, and home modifications. We need wheelchair ramps, wider doorways, and safety rails.
Emotional Support: Knowing that our community stands with us fuels Carlos’s determination. Your encouragement matters.
How You Can Make a Difference:
Donate: Every dollar counts. Whether it’s the price of a coffee or more, your generosity matters.
Share: Spread the word! Share our fundraiser with friends, family, and coworkers.
Pray and Send Positive Vibes: We believe in collective energy. Your thoughts and prayers uplift us.
Thank you for being part of Carlos’s journey. Let’s rally around him, just as he’s done for us. Together, we can rewrite this chapter with hope and healing.


With gratitude,
Carlos, Gina & Vinnie
