Help Ethan Rebuild After Tragic Car Fire

Help Ethan Rebuild After a Devastating Car Fire

I’m putting this fundraiser together for a young man named Ethan—someone I’ve gotten to know well through the work I do in the automotive world. He’s 21 years old, and he’s one of the most selfless, respectful, and hardworking people I’ve met in a long time.

Ethan’s been through a lot recently. He came out of a rough relationship not too long ago, one that took a toll on him emotionally. Despite that, he’s been pushing forward—bouncing around from shop to shop, lending a hand wherever he could. Sometimes he was paid, many times he wasn’t, but he never let that change how hard he worked or how much pride he took in helping others.

He finally caught a break and landed a job at O’Reilly’s, and has been doing great there for about a month now. Things were starting to look up—and then the unthinkable happened.

While driving recently, Ethan’s car suddenly caught fire. It was a total loss. The fire came out of nowhere, and thankfully he made it out safely, but the car was beyond saving. He’s now left without transportation, and it’s a major setback for someone who’s just starting to get back on solid ground.

This wasn’t something that could’ve been predicted or prevented. It was just one of those devastating moments that hits out of nowhere.

I’m raising funds to help get Ethan back on the road—whether it’s buying something reliable or building something piece by piece. He’s more than earned it, and I truly believe this could be the turning point that helps him keep moving forward.

If you can give anything at all—or even just share—thank you from the bottom of our heart. Let’s help get Ethan rolling again.
