If you're from El Dorado County, chances are you've met our dad, Mike Wallace. He's the guy who can't walk down the street without stopping to chat with neighbors, check on friends, or move your couch.

Our dad has always been the kind of person who tackles life's challenges head-on, but this time is different.

For months, he has been the sole caregiver for my mom while trying to run his small business. As head of household, he's carried the weight of providing for his family while watching over the love of his life during her health struggles.

The medical expenses are crushing. With my dad unable to work, our family is drowning in costs that insurance doesn't cover.

We're not looking for charity. We're asking for a little buffer to help Mike get back to working full-time and caring for his family. Your support is helping them stay afloat and avoid further financial strain during this incredibly hard time.

With gratitude,

The Wallace Family
