Help Our Dad Reclaim His Life

Donation protected
Our father, Matthew, had always been our hero. A dedicated truck driver for over 40 years and a single parent to three children, he sacrificed everything to give us a stable life. Through long hours, missed memories, and countless miles on the road, he showed up for us as best as he possibly could.

But for the past 20 years, our dad has silently battled alcoholism. We’ve watched the man who once lit up every room become a quiet shadow of himself. It’s been heartbreaking—but today, there’s hope.

Matthew has taken a courageous step and admitted himself into a 90-day detox and rehab program. His treatment is thankfully covered by insurance, but the rest of life’s responsibilities—rent, utilities, car payments—aren’t.

That’s where we’re asking for your help.

We’re raising $6,000 to cover the essential bills while our dad focuses entirely on recovery. We expect the true cost to be more, but as his children, we’re taking on what we can. Every dollar you contribute helps lift this burden from his shoulders so he can come home to a life that’s still waiting for him.

He showed up for us. Now, it’s our turn to show up for him.

Thank you for reading, and thank you for standing with our family during this time.
