​Hello everyone. My name is Chris, but that is not important. I'm here to talk about my friend, Jacob.

Jacob is the kind of person who defines community. With two young children and two small businesses, he's dedicated his life to giving back, enriching the lives of everyone around him. For Jacob, it's never been about the money; it's always been about making a difference. You can find his businesses on Facebook. Main Street Games and Main Street Skate. Both in Winfield kansas. His businesses struggle, as many small businesses do. So much so that he's considered getting a full time job just to support them. Again, it's not about the money. It's about keeping the businesses open for the community.

​Recently, in a desperate attempt to secure a more stable financial future for his kids and his businesses, he took a significant risk—he used a home equity line of credit on his only house. He saw an opportunity to finally give his family the peace of mind they deserved, a chance to end the constant financial struggle.

​But he was ultimately taken advantage of. In one devastating moment, he lost everything he had invested, leaving his businesses, his family, and his home in dangerous jeopardy.

​Now, it's our turn to help the man who has given so much to so many. We can't stand by and watch Jacob lose everything he's worked so hard for. This GoFundMe is a chance to help Jacob recover what was stolen and provide a lifeline for his businesses and his family. Your contribution, no matter how small, can help Jacob rebuild and continue his mission of making the world a better place.
