Help My Dad, Michael Balta, Through a Tough Time

Hi, my name is Amber and I’m reaching out on behalf of my father, Michael. He’s a proud Air Force veteran and has spent much of his life serving others—as both a military and civilian firefighter. Now, he’s facing an emergency situation of his own.

Due to recent medical issues, my dad and his fiancée have fallen behind on basic living expenses—rent, utilities, medical necessities, car repairs, food, and other everyday bills. They're doing everything they can to stay afloat, but things have become overwhelming.

It’s incredibly hard to ask for help, especially for someone as strong and independent as my dad. But right now, any support—no matter how small—would mean the world to us. If you’re able to give or even just share this campaign, it would be deeply appreciated.

Amber
