Christian's Battle: Your Help Matters
Donation protected
The Crash Champions vision of "We Champion People" is not simply a reflection of what we do; it's who we are. This commitment extends beyond just our customers; it includes our teammates as well.
Meet Christian Hernandez, an A tech at the Neptune516 shop. Christian joined us several months ago in hopes of finding a team that would give him the same level of respect and opportunity that he would offer any company he worked with. Little did he know that on April 29, 2025, he would be faced with a challenge he never expected.
At the end of 2024, Christian was involved in a car accident that resulted in an injury to his cervical spine. After undergoing an MRI in mid-February 2025, the images revealed much more than just a neck injury. Christian was informed that he had a mass on his thyroid, and further testing revealed an additional mass on his lymph nodes.
The ongoing journey Christian faces following his cancer diagnosis has been incredibly challenging. As he navigates through treatment options, including surgery, which was performed May 9th followed by radiation treatments, he continues to exhibit immense strength and resilience.
Christian is a devoted husband to his wife, Eva, and a loving father to their three small boys, Liam, Levy, and Lenny. His dedication to his family, colleagues, and work remains unwavering, even in the face of adversity. Christian's commitment to the Crash Champions family is evident as he supports his teammates while managing his own health challenges, embodying the very spirit of our vision.
This experience has brought our team closer together, reinforcing our belief in supporting each other not just as coworkers but as a family. As Christian continues his fight, we are reminded of the importance of community and compassion in overcoming life's obstacles.
Your support through the GoFundMe campaign will play a crucial role in helping Christian manage the financial burdens associated with his treatment and recovery. It will allow him to focus on healing without the added stress of medical expenses.
We are grateful for any assistance you can provide, as it will greatly benefit Christian and his family during this difficult time. Thank you for standing by him and for embodying the spirit of 'We Champion People.'
