Hi Friends and Family –

As you may or may not have heard, on September 5, 2021 John Coutinho was in an accident and suffered a severe spinal cord injury. He has undergone surgery to re-align his spinal cord but will require long term extensive treatment to regain mobility.

Anyone who knows John knows that he is the first person to give the shirt off his back and the last person to ask for help. He is an amazing father to five daughters and will soon welcome his first son into this world. Despite the trauma John has gone through, his strength is admired by all that surround him. We ask that you please donate whatever you can. Your donation will help alleviate the financial burden this family is faced with. We hope that by taking away the worry of medical bills, John, Deteisha and their children can focus solely on recovery.

Thank you all so much.

Update:

John’s baby boy, Legend, was born on September 15, 2021, weighing in at 7 lbs .4oz.

John was transferred to the Rehab facility on September 17, 2021.  We appreciate your continued support.
