Hi, my name is Brisa Montes and I have an urgent need to raise money to help my own family.

on Thursday morning, August 17, 2023. I received the news that my 15 year old son Damian was shot multiple times. He was in the hospital fighting for his life with damage to his spine, paralyzed from the neck down, and on a machine to help him stay alive. The doctor said he would not survive and last night, August 22 at 11:14 PM, he passed away. My heart is broken, as my family is as well to have lost Damian and such a tragic way and useless way to gun violence.

My family and I need your help as I have taking time away from work to be by his bedside, while my three other boys were at home without me. Prayers are much-needed as I navigate through this very difficult journey.

Thank you to those that have provided and continue to provide emotional support. With not being able to work, and being a single mom, any financial assistance would be greatly appreciated. It would go towards funeral expenses, hospital bills, food and shelter, any additional expenses that we don’t know we will need at this time.

Thank you in advance.

(funeral details to be announced)…
