Help Ismael Rebuild After Car Crash

Hi, my name is Ismael Valdivieso Jr., and I’m a full-time college student trying to recover from a life-altering accident.

On May 5, 2025, while returning from a job orientation on the Berlin Turnpike, I lost control of my car during heavy rain. The roads were slick, and my car hydroplaned — I never regained control. I slid helplessly through traffic and crashed into a utility pole. The impact was so severe that one side of the car wrapped around the pole.

I went to the hospital and was diagnosed with a sprained left arm, a concussion with a cut on my head, and back pain due to what appears to be a pinched area. Thankfully, I didn’t require admission — but the pain, stress, and financial impact are still overwhelming. My car was completely totaled, and despite having paid insurance faithfully for 7–8 months, they denied my claim because no animal or other vehicle was involved.

Now I’m without transportation, dealing with injuries, and struggling to cover college bills and everyday expenses.

I’m raising funds to help with:

• Medical care and follow-ups

• A replacement vehicle so I can work and attend school

• Tuition and essential living costs

and just get back on my feet

I’m doing my best to stay hopeful and focused, trusting God to open a way forward. I’m working hard to stay strong, faithful, and focused on rebuilding my life. Any support — whether through a donation or sharing this campaign — means more than I can say. Thank you for your kindness and prayers.
