<div>My name is Samuel Weidenhofer, and I’m raising funds for an 85-year-old veteran and father who still has to work to survive. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I urge us all to come together for David to save his family home of 50 years that he’s at risk of losing very soon.. 
</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>For more than four decades, David Haeick lived by a simple belief: work hard, take care of your family, and show up every day. A lifelong construction and maintenance worker, David is a true jack-of-all-trades who took pride in honest, hands-on work. 

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>For over 30 years, he maintained commercial buildings in downtown Buffalo until he was laid off in his mid-70s—abruptly, without severance or a retirement plan—just months after finishing treatment for salivary gland cancer.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>While the treatment saved his life, surgery and radiation left him with severe, long-term side effects that made physical work extremely difficult. 

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Still, unwilling to ask for help, David returned to work as a custodian for the Village of Hamburg Recreation Department, continuing to show up despite the pain.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>In 2024, at 84 years old, his health took another devastating turn. He developed osteoradionecrosis, a rare and serious infection linked to prior radiation treatment.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>He was hospitalised, then bedridden for weeks while receiving IV antibiotics at home. Unable to work, he fell behind on his mortgage and now faces foreclosure.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>The home at risk is where David and his wife Virginia raised six children and built their life over more than 40 years. Despite repeated efforts to resolve the situation with the loan servicer, the foreclosure remains unresolved.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>David served honourably in the Army Reserves and carried those values, discipline, responsibility, and quiet perseverance throughout his life. He is a proud father who tragically lost his son Seth in 2020 and is deeply loved by his five remaining children, who are doing everything they can to help.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>This fundraiser exists for one simple reason: to give a man who spent his life building, fixing, and caring for others the chance to rest, heal, and remain in his home. Any support helps relieve immediate financial pressure and offers dignity and security after a lifetime of honest work.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Thank you for taking the time to read his story and for anything you’ve donated to saving his home! ❤️
