Hello! Our names are Sydney and Jarrod. We are working with our family to start a fundraiser to help our Uncle Brad and Aunt Mary Jo following the embezzlement of funds from their small, family-owned business, Riverbend Signworks. They recently discovered a significant amount of money had been taken from their business by a (now former) employee over the course of the past couple years. As you can imagine, this affects them in every aspect of their lives. The details of the lawsuit and making sense of the situation are emotionally exhausting, and have proven to be quite overwhelming.

If you know Brad and Mary Jo, you know they are both kind, loving, selfless people who go out of their way to help the people around them and they are quick to give back to their community. They have spent over a decade working hard for their business, and building a workplace culture that feels like family. Additionally, they both have found immense joy teaching and mentoring others to help them achieve their own successes. Our goal is to give Brad and Mary Jo the support they deserve during this trying time.

While this has been a setback, they are determined to bounce back stronger than ever! As mentioned, Riverbend Signworks has been the community’s go-to for signage needs for over 10 years now, and they do not want to let this trial stop them from continuing to do what they love to do. The funds we're seeking will help them cover a portion of the financial gap left by the incident, and ensure they can continue providing the community with the quality products and services that they have been offering since the day they opened.

Your support, whether big or small, will make a huge difference in getting them back on track. We would love for you to help us turn this unexpected twist into a comeback story for Brad, Mary Jo, and the entire Riverbend Signworks family.
