Hi everyone, my name is Franco. A few days ago, I was in a hit-and-run accident that completely changed my life. I was hit by a car that didn’t stop, and the impact broke both my tibia and fibula on my right leg. I had to undergo three surgeries to repair the damage, and now I’m facing a long road of recovery.

It’s been one of the hardest things I’ve ever experienced — physically, mentally, and financially. I won’t be able to work for a while, and the costs of hospital bills, rent, food, and art supplies are starting to pile up.

Art has always been my outlet — it’s how I express myself and connect with others. Even through pain, I still want to create. That’s why I’m asking for your help — so I can focus on healing for the next 12 months and slowly get back to doing what I love.

Any contribution, no matter the amount, truly helps me stay afloat through this time. Even just sharing this means a lot. I’m beyond grateful for the love, messages, and kindness I’ve already received.

Thank you for helping me get back on my feet — literally and creatively.

With love and gratitude,

Franco
