Fifteen year old Caden Smith Weight Loss Journey
Donation protected
Greetings,
I'm Michael Bourg, reaching out on behalf of my nephew, Caden Smith, a remarkable 15-year-old living near Little Rock, Arkansas. Caden, a supportive brother and kind-hearted individual, has embarked on a transformative journey that he shared on Facebook, deeply moving me and many others.
Caden's journey is not just about losing weight; it's about embracing a healthier lifestyle and the positive ripple effects it brings. His commitment is evident in his own words shared on Facebook, where he speaks candidly about his challenges and aspirations, including his dream to play college ball.
To support Caden's endeavor, I've initiated this GoFundMe campaign. It's more than just a fundraiser; it's a testament to the collective support from friends, family, and even kind-hearted strangers. We aim to motivate Caden and demonstrate that he's not alone in this journey.
For a glimpse into Caden's determination, here's an excerpt from his poignant Facebook post:
"Today is a special day... I WILL lose weight. I WILL learn how to eat right. And most importantly, I WILL be confident with how I look... It starts with a mindset."

Campaign Objectives:
- Primary Goal: Support Caden in losing 20 pounds by June 15, 2024.
- Long Term Goal: Loose 40 pounds and keep it off.
- Incentive: Upon reaching his primary goal, funds raised will contribute to Caden's Car Fund, marking a significant milestone as he turns 16 in December 2024. His other incentive is that he will be healthier and happier young man.
Commitment and Transparency:
- Weekly Updates: We'll share Caden's progress, focusing on his achievements without disclosing specific numbers, to respect his privacy.
- Conditional Allocation: If Caden loses at least 10 pounds, he'll receive a portion of the funds for his car fund, with the percentage increasing with each additional pound lost. Any remaining funds will be earmarked for his college savings or future needs.
Purpose:
The core mission of this GoFundMe campaign is twofold:
- Empowerment: We aim to empower Caden Smith in his transformative journey towards a healthier lifestyle. By setting a tangible goal of losing 20 pounds by a specific date, we are not just focusing on numbers but on encouraging Caden to adopt sustainable health and wellness habits. This journey is about more than weight loss; it's about building confidence, resilience, and a positive outlook on life.
- Community Support: This campaign serves as a platform for friends, family, and even strangers to show their support for Caden's efforts. It's a message to Caden that he is not alone in his journey; a community of supporters believes in his ability to achieve his goals. The campaign transforms individual encouragement into collective action, creating a network of support that underscores the importance of community in personal transformation.
By contributing to this campaign, supporters are investing in Caden's future, not just in terms of physical health but also in bolstering his self-esteem and helping him realize his potential. The funds raised will also provide a tangible reward for his hard work, contributing to his Car Fund as he approaches a significant milestone in his life, turning 16.
This campaign is a testament to the power of collective support and the belief that together, we can help Caden navigate this journey, overcome challenges, and celebrate his achievements along the way.
This initiative isn't just about financial support; it's an opportunity to show Caden that his efforts are seen and applauded. Every donation, no matter the size, is a voice of encouragement, amplifying the message that we believe in him. We all understand how hard it is to be a young man in todays society and support him in his life progression.
