Support Tanner Varrelman’s Journey to Recovery

On August 24th, Tanner Varrelman suffered severe traumatic brain injuries in a life-altering incident. Against all odds, Tanner survived and has undergone multiple brain surgeries at St. Joseph Regional Medical Center in Lewiston, Idaho. Now, Tanner is on the long road to recovery, which requires long-term medical care, physical therapy, and eventual placement into a specialized rehabilitation facility.

Tanner's parents, Ben and Jen Varrelman, have traveled from their home in Pateros, Washington, to be by his side every step of the way. His two sisters, along with many friends, have also rallied around him, offering their love and support.

Tanner is a brilliant scientist and computer programmer who earned his Ph.D. from the University of Idaho. He has a passion for learning, solving puzzles, and spending quality time with his family and friends. Above all, Tanner is someone who has always sought to make the world a better place.

The Varrelman family is now facing overwhelming and ongoing expenses for Tanner’s care. In addition to medical bills, they are incurring substantial travel costs, and Tanner's long-term rehabilitation will require significant resources. Your generous support will help ease the financial burden on the Varrelman family during this incredibly challenging time and ensure that Tanner gets the care he needs to continue his remarkable journey of healing.

Every contribution, no matter the size, will make a difference. Thank you for supporting Tanner and his family during this difficult time.

Together, we can help Tanner make his way back to the things he loves.
