Help Coach Rebound After Emergency Amputation

Donation protected
Hi friends, family and kind-hearted community. Our basketball organization is organizing this fundraiser on behalf of our Coach, Andres Avitia. Coach Avitia needs our support more than ever. Due to unfortunate circumstances, our Coach and dear friend has lost the majority of his right leg due to an emergency amputation.

The impact of this unfathomable tragedy is detrimental to his family. His wife and three young boys will be facing difficult times to adjust to a new way of life. Unfortunately, the road to recovery will be long and difficult as this is life changing; physically, mentally, emotionally and financially due to loss of income. Coach Avitia is unable to work, will need adjustments to his home, mobility aids, prosthetics, rehabilitation, medications, numerous doctor visits on top of existing medical bills.

Most of you know that Coach Avitia has dedicated the vast majority of his time to coaching youth basketball. His dedication to our young children has had a direct impact on our players’ athletic development shaping the athletes of tomorrow. Let’s come together and show our support for Coach Avitia, his wife and three young boys.

Our basketball organization sends our deepest thank you for your compassion, kindness, generosity and for being a line of hope for Coach Avitia and his family during this difficult time. Your generous donation will go directly to medical expenses, medications, rehabilitation, prosthetics, doctor visits, and mobility aids.

We know Coach will rebound. Let’s help him do so!
