Hi, my name is Cristina, and I’m organizing this fundraiser on behalf of my sister, brother-in-law, niece, and nephews after the heartbreaking loss of their son and brother, Christian Vasquez.

Christian had just celebrated his 21st birthday on Monday. Only days later, our family’s world was shattered when he was tragically taken from us. He was simply in the wrong place at the wrong time, not involved with the people responsible, just caught in a senseless act of violence.

Christian was one of the most calm, sweet, and respectful young men you could ever meet. He worked hard, loved deeply, and brought light to everyone around him. He was one of six siblings — the second youngest ,and meant so much to his entire family.

He loved playing his guitar, roosters, cars, and being outdoors. His grandparents affectionately called him “Pollo,” because of his youthful look and gentle heart — a nickname that perfectly fit his kind spirit.

We are raising funds to help cover emergency expenses. Any donation, big or small, will make a difference and help ease this heavy burden for his parents and siblings.

If you can’t donate, please share this page and keep our family in your prayers. Your love, support, and kindness mean more than words can express.

With love and gratitude,

The Vasquez-Gonzalez Family
