I'm fighting for my rights as a father in a state where unwed fathers have no legal standing. This has been an incredibly difficult and emotional journey, but I am determined to do everything I can to be present in my child's life. The system can feel overwhelming and isolating, but I know that standing up for my rights is the only way to ensure my child has the father they deserve.

The funds raised through this campaign will go directly toward retainer fees for an attorney who can help me navigate the legal process. Legal representation is essential for me to have a fair chance in court and to advocate for my role as a father. Every contribution, no matter the size, brings me one step closer to being there for my child and providing the love and support they need.

I am asking for your help because I want my rights as a father. I want to be the father I didn't have growing up. Your support means the world to me and will make a real difference in my fight to be present in my child's life. Thank you for standing with me and believing in the importance of a father's love.
