Help a Truck Driver Stranded Far from Home
Donation protected
I’m reaching out on behalf of a hardworking semi-truck driver who’s found himself in an incredibly difficult situation.
He's an independent contractor who has spent years hauling freight across the country, working hard to support his wife and young child back home. Recently, while on the road, he had to take a sick day due to a flare-up from Ulcerative Colitis, a painful chronic condition he’s been quietly managing.
He did the responsible thing and informed his employer that he wasn’t well enough to drive that day. At first, they seemed to understand but just hours later, they called him back to say they would no longer be working with him, and had another driver from the company take his keys . Then, without warning, they left him stranded at a truck stop in California, far from home and they are now refusing to pay him his last paycheck.
He now has no transportation, no income, and no way to get back home to his wife and child, who are anxiously waiting and worried.
We’re raising funds to:
Help him get safely back home to his family
Cover basic immediate needs like food and temporary shelter
If you believe in standing by hardworking people when they’re down, please consider donating or sharing this campaign. Every bit helps — and your support can help reunite a father with his family and give him a chance to get back on his feet.
Thank you so much.
