For over 20 years, Darren Brown has been a familiar and beloved face in Okotoks. He's the kind of person who shows up for others — and now, we're asking his community to show up for him.

Darren was recently diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer, that has metastasized to his spine, and as he focuses every bit of his strength on fighting this disease, the bills don't stop coming. We're raising funds to help ease the financial burden on Darren so he can focus on what matters most right now — his health, his family, and making memories.

Our dream is to not only help cover his everyday expenses, but to give Darren something to look forward to: a vacation where he can simply rest, laugh, and be surrounded by the people who love him most.

If you've ever crossed paths with Darren, shared a conversation with him, or simply want to support a good man going through the hardest chapter of his life — any contribution means the world to us. And if you can't give financially, sharing this page goes just as far.

Thank you, Okotoks. You've always been home for Darren, and we know you'll show up for him now.
