Help Connor go to college and pursue his dreams!

To our family, friends, and everyone who knows and loves Connor,

Our son is graduating high school — and while it’s a proud milestone for any parent, this moment is something more. It’s a chance to recognize the incredible young man Connor has become, and to surround him with the encouragement of the people who have mattered most in his life.

Connor is the kind of person who leaves a mark. Not with noise or flash, but with presence. With integrity. With a quiet strength that draws people in and inspires those around him. He’s the first to offer help, the last to ask for anything, and the one who makes every space he enters a little better.

He’s put in the work. He’s earned this moment. And now, he’s ready for whatever comes next — and believe us, whatever he chooses to pursue, he’ll pour his whole heart into it.

This GoFundMe isn’t just about money. It’s about giving those who care about Connor the chance to lift him up as he moves forward. Any contributions will help ease the financial pressure of tuition, course materials, transportation and housing expenses and other tools he needs to be successful with this major life transition. But even more than that — we’d love for you to leave a message. A story. A piece of advice. A simple note to let him know you’re standing beside him.

Connor’s journey is just beginning, but already, he’s the kind of man the world needs more of. We couldn’t be more proud of him.

With love and deep gratitude,

The Collins Family
