Help Gerardo Heal and Rebuild After a Tragic Accident

Donation protected
Important Note: Funds will be deposited to me (Joel) and transferred directly to Gerardo for medical and household expenses.

On the evening of Wednesday, February 18, 2026, my brother, Gerardo Lopez Jr., was walking home after his car unexpectedly stalled and wouldn’t start. Tragically, on his way home, he was struck by a vehicle and suffered life-threatening abdominal injuries and internal bleeding, as well as a broken leg. He was rushed to Valley Baptist Hospital and underwent several emergency surgeries. Thanks to the incredible work of medical staff and the grace of God, Gerardo is now in stable condition — but he has a long and difficult road to recovery ahead.

Gerardo is a loving husband and father of two beautiful daughters and the sole provider for his family. He had recently started a new job and unfortunately did not yet have health insurance at the time of the accident. As he focuses on healing, he is unable to work, which has left his family facing serious financial challenges.

We’re reaching out to friends, family, and our community to ask for any help you can give. Your generous donations will go directly toward Gerardo’s medical expenses, ongoing treatments, and household needs as he recovers. Every contribution, no matter the amount, makes a difference and brings comfort to our family during this unimaginable time.

From the bottom of our hearts, we thank you for your love, prayers, and support for Gerardo and his family.


La noche del miércoles 18 de febrero de 2026, mi hermano, Gerardo López Jr., regresaba caminando a casa después de que su automóvil se descompusiera.

Trágicamente, en camino a casa, fue atropellado por un vehículo y sufrió lesiones abdominales que pusieron en peligro su vida, una hemorragia interna y la fractura de una pierna.

Fue trasladado de urgencia al hospital Valley Baptist, donde fue sometido a varias cirugías de emergencia. Gracias a la increíble labor del personal médico y a la gracia de Dios, hoy Gerardo se encuentra estable. Sin embargo, le espera un largo y difícil camino hacia la recuperación.

Gerardo es un esposo amoroso y padre de dos hermosas hijas, además de ser el único sustento de su familia. Recientemente había comenzado un nuevo empleo y, lamentablemente, aún no contaba con seguro médico al momento del accidente. Mientras se concentra en su recuperación, no puede trabajar, lo que ha dejado a su familia enfrentando una situación económica muy difícil.

Hoy acudimos a amigos, familiares y a nuestra comunidad para solicitar cualquier apoyo que puedan brindar. Las donaciones recibidas se destinarán directamente a cubrir los gastos médicos, tratamientos y necesidades básicas del hogar durante este proceso de recuperación.

Cada contribución, sin importar la cantidad, representa una gran ayuda y un alivio para nuestra familia en estos momentos tan difíciles.

De todo corazón, agradecemos su cariño, sus oraciones y su apoyo para Gerardo y su familia.
