I am sharing this fundraiser on behalf of my dear friends, John and Becky, a family who has built their lives on hard work, perseverance, and caring for others. For years, they have quietly been the people others could count on.

For decades, they devoted themselves to the family business, creating not only a successful exhibit company but also a loving home. Through adoption, they welcomed and raised three children, building a family rooted in compassion, resilience, and unconditional love.

Many of you have already supported them with prayers, encouragement, and donations, and we are deeply grateful. For those who are new to their story, I'd like to share why their need for help has grown.

This fundraiser originally began to help John and Becky navigate the overwhelming challenges surrounding their 15 year old son's care. What started as a search for answers became years of advocacy, legal efforts, and sacrifice to secure the educational and behavioral support he needed. Today, after years of perseverance, and a confirmed diagnosis of severe processing disabilities while also being on the Autistic spectrum, he is finally receiving the specialized educational resources and residential care he needs, bringing much-needed stability and hope.

That victory, however, has come at a tremendous cost.

While Becky devoted herself to advocating for their son, John worked tirelessly to keep their successful exhibit company running. This was a business they had built over many years through hard work, trusted relationships, and a reputation for excellence. Like many family businesses, it relied on both of them. As Becky's time and energy were redirected toward their son's needs, essential responsibilities, business development, and future growth inevitably suffered.

Adding to the challenge, they had recently invested in a larger facility to support the company's continued growth, a decision made from a position of success and optimism. Instead, circumstances beyond their control forced them to shift nearly all of their focus to their family, and the business they had worked so hard to build was deeply impacted.

Now, with their son finally receiving the care he needs, John and Becky can begin turning their attention back to rebuilding the business that has supported their family for so many years. This fundraiser will provide the breathing room they need to move forward and rebuild what years of extraordinary circumstances put on hold.

I've witnessed firsthand the generosity and integrity John and Becky have shown others. Through their business, they quietly supported countless community organizations, including nonprofits I served with, donating their time, talents, and resources without expecting anything in return.

John and Becky have always stepped forward when someone else needed help. Today, I'm asking our community to do the same for them.

If you know John and Becky, you know they are hardworking, generous, and deeply devoted to their family, their clients, and their community. Whether you choose to donate, share their story, or simply offer words of encouragement, your support will make a meaningful difference. Together, we can help this remarkable family rebuild the future they have worked so hard to create.
