Help Wardy Keep Smiling Dental Fundraiser

Hi, My name is Jacci, and I'm creating this fundraiser alongside my stepdaughters Rachael, Bekah, & Louisa, and on behalf of an amazing husband, father, and grandfather of two. Peter Ward, or most of you know him as "Wardy". To us, he's a hero, not just in our family, but also to the many who watched him on the soccer field, during his career that has spanned decades. Peter has always been the life of the party and someone who always makes everyone else smile and laugh. We now feel like it's his turn to be able to smile and laugh with confidence.

Unfortunately, an injury early in his career changed the course of his dental health forever. While scoring a critical goal, he was accidentally kicked in the face, knocking out a few of his teeth. He shot and scored in that match, but ever since then, he has endured decades of dental complications, pain, and procedures.

Peter is turning 70 in July! He is now retired and on a fixed income, and his dental health has worsened. He's in urgent need of extensive dental work including implants and restorative care not just for his appearance, but for his health, comfort, and overall well-being. The cost is overwhelming and not covered by insurance. It's incredibly hard for him to ask for help, but we know how much this means to him not just to smile comfortably again, but to eat without pain and enjoy time with family and friends without hiding behind a closed mouth.

We're humbly asking for your help in raising this money to cover the cost of the dental procedures he desperately needs. Any amount no matter how small means the world to our family and especially to Peter, who has been suffering in silence about this personal struggle.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for reading, sharing, and supporting. Your kindness will give a man who means so much to all of us a chance to smile again.

With much gratitude,

Jacci, Rachael, Bekah, & Louisa
