Walking Through the Darkness for Karl – In Aid of SOSAD

On March 18th, 2025, we lost someone irreplaceable . Karl Vogelaar. A partner, a son, a brother, a friend, and most Proudest DADDY to A little boy, Karl had a heart of gold and a soul full of love, but he struggled deeply and the weight of pain he carried for so long. Despite it all, he always tried to fight through it for his family, for his future.

This year, in Karl’s name, we will be walking Darkness Into Light in Drogheda on May 10th at 4:15 AM. We are walking for Karl. For everyone still fighting. For everyone we’ve lost. And for everyone who needs a reminder that they’re never alone.

We’re raising money for SOSAD Ireland, an incredible organisation that provides free counselling and support to those facing life’s toughest challenges. Every euro donated is a step towards hope for someone who’s hurting,

This walk isn’t just a fundraiser—it’s a tribute. It’s a light in the dark for Karl’s memory, and a promise to keep speaking up, keep showing up, and keep loving.

If you knew Karl, you knew how much he wanted to help people. Now we’re doing it for him. So his legacy lives on

Please donate what you can, walk with us if you’d like, and help us keep Karl’s love alive.

Thank you for your support.
Forever young. Forever loved.
Karlito Brigante – The main character always.
