Bring Peace to Calvin: Funeral Support and Fresh Start

Donation protected
My name is Calvin Gregory, and on February 28, 2025, my world changed forever. I lost my brother, Travis Gregory.

Travis battled many health challenges over the years, including diabetes and stage 4 renal failure. Despite his struggles, he remained hopeful he was preparing to start dialysis and had plans to eventually receive a kidney transplant. Sadly, he never got that chance.

For 13 years, Travis and I shared an apartment. We supported each other through life’s ups and downs, and he was more than my brother, he was my closest friend and companion. His passing has left a hole in my heart and in my life.

We were both on disability, and even together, it was difficult to keep up with rent and bills. Without Travis’s share of the expenses, I am no longer able to afford to stay in the place we’ve called home for over a decade. On top of grieving his loss, I am now facing urgent financial and housing challenges.

I created this campaign to honor Travis’s memory, give him the farewell he deserves, and help me secure a safe, stable place to live as I try to rebuild my life after this devastating loss.

What Your Donation Will Help Cover
Your support will go directly toward these critical needs:

Funeral & Burial Costs: Giving Travis the respectful farewell he deserves, including funeral services, burial expenses, and related costs.

Moving Assistance: As a double amputee, I am physically unable to move on my own. Your donations will help cover the cost of hiring movers and safely relocating my belongings.

New Housing Costs: I will need help with the first month’s rent, security deposit, and any move-in fees to secure a new, more affordable apartment.

Immediate Bills: Assistance with this month’s rent and next month’s utilities to prevent eviction and keep the lights on until I can relocate.

Why This Matters So Much
This is more than just a fundraiser, it's a lifeline. Without help, I am at risk of losing housing entirely, which would make my situation even more difficult given my disability. Every dollar raised will bring me one step closer to stability, allowing me to grieve my brother without the fear of losing my home.

How You Can Help
If you are able, please consider making a donation. Every contribution big or small makes a difference. If you cannot donate, sharing this campaign with friends, family, and on social media would mean the world to me.

Together, you can help me give Travis the farewell he deserves, cover urgent bills, and secure a safe place to live.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your kindness, compassion, and prayers during this heartbreaking time. Your support truly gives me strength.
