Rick is a kind, resilient man navigating unimaginable challenges. He’s 70 years old, medically fragile, and currently unhoused. He’s doing his best to survive the South Carolina heat with his beloved dog, Sassy, by his side. Despite the circumstances, Rick shows grace and gratitude every single day.

His needs are simple: a safe place to sleep, protection from the heat, and enough stability to begin rebuilding his life. And now, we finally have a real chance to make that happen.

We’re reaching out to friends, family, and kind strangers for help. Every donation brings us one step closer to giving Rick and Sassy a real home, a door that locks, a bed to sleep in, a break from the storm. If you’ve ever wondered how you could make a difference in someone’s life, this is it!

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your generosity and compassion. Regardless of Rick's circumstances, he has love, loyalty, and the will to keep going. Let’s help him not just survive, but finally feel safe.

Here’s the opportunity:

We’ve located a camper in good condition, for $5,000. It’s the perfect size for Rick and Sassy. Even more important, we will be able to secure a piece of land where Rick can legally park the camper. This would give him the stability and safety he deserves.

What we need:

We’re raising $5,000 to purchase the camper. Every dollar will go directly toward getting Rick into safe, stable housing. If we exceed our goal, additional funds will help cover move-in needs (like bedding and supplies) or assist with his ongoing utility costs and medical needs.

Why it matters:

Rick battles health challenges that are made worse by the brutal heat. Sassy is his heart and his constant companion, but finding shelters or housing that accept pets has been nearly impossible. This camper isn’t just a roof—it’s a lifeline for both of them.

Even if you can’t donate, please share this page. Together, we can give Rick and Sassy the second chance they deserve.
