Hey guys! 

As most of you are aware, our good friend Ellison Santos just recently got his big break in the form of a contract working for Google! As a long-time tech and film buff, this could be the Holy Grail of his career - the only catch is that he was given a very short time to decide if he wanted to take the job based all the way in California.

We all told him to say yes, and he did - but now we want to help him get there. Such a long distance move on such short notice is hard to pull off, so we're hoping to offset some of the financial burden by giving him a cash-cushion to help with travel, transportation of his things to Cali, maybe even his first month's rent or some groceries to make his first few weeks there comfortable and worry free.

This is a surprise for Ellison - we want to be able to present him with the money right before he leaves, so unfortunately that means that time is short - but it will mean the world to him and to all of us if you can give anything that you're able to!

Thanks everyone!

This fundraiser is being organized by several of his best buddies for the past 20+ years of his life: Erica Lodge (the mastermind behind the GoFundMe page!) Jervon Mercier (who is accepting donations on his behalf) Damian Martinez and Nestor Arzu. Please feel free to contact these guys or myself via Facebook if you have questions about the campaign. Let's give him the surprise of his life!
