# I’m Not Ready to Be a Dad. Baby Greg Deserves a Better Life.

I have some difficult news.

I became a father unexpectedly.

His name is Baby Greg.

He is small. He is vulnerable. He has a shell. He has no job. He does not understand money, roads, rent, nutrition, transportation, or the American healthcare system.

And I am not ready.

Earlier today, Baby Greg was seconds away from disaster. He was in the road, moving with the urgency of a retired DMV employee, completely unaware that modern traffic does not care about personal growth journeys.

I stepped in.

I saved him.

And then reality hit me.

Saving a life is beautiful. Raising one is expensive.

Baby Greg deserves more than a confused man with good intentions and no reptile infrastructure. He deserves safety, food, proper care, and a healthy place to grow, bask, eat, and disappoint me like any beloved son should.

Believe in Greg like someone believed in you.

We exist to make opportunities happen.\

**Give Yourself or a Friend:**

**$50 — Custom Thank You From Greg**
You’ll receive a personalized thank-you from Baby Greg, who cannot speak, write, or understand gratitude, but will do his best.

**$100 — Become Baby Greg’s Godparent**
You’ll receive a custom thank-you from Greg plus an official Baby Greg Godparent Certificate recognizing your role in helping him escape traffic, poverty, and a future of uncertainty.

$10,000 Total Raised — We will take Greg to Cabo for his birthday in which our bodies and minds will be pushed to the limit. Being a dad isn't easy, but I will make sure OUR Greg sees the world.

And don't worry...

The metaphor of Greg was written with Detroit youth and carries through to funds raised: Every dollar will support Detroit youth ready to take on the world in Southwest Detroit. We raise our children as a community.

Reach out for more details on the 501c3.
