Man Who Lost Both of His Legs While at Work

Donation protected
Hi, my name is Christa, and my sisters (Erin and Allie) and I are fundraising on behalf of Crash Morrison.

Crash Morrison is an unbelievably sweet and hardworking man. He’s the first to work and the last to leave. He has been a dedicated employee to the garbage business since he was a kid. He previously owned his own garbage business until 2013 and then began working for Morrison’s Garbage service. On Monday night, August 29th, he was unloading a garbage cart when a woman fell asleep at the wheel and ran into him with her car. He instantly lost his legs above the knees from the impact against the stairs of the garbage truck and the car. He also suffered two fractures to his right arm and one fracture to his right shoulder. Our uncle owns the garbage business, and Crash is a relative and friend. His parents are no longer with us, and he has two teenage sons with disabilities. Due to their disabilities, one son cannot work and depends heavily on the adults in his life. Not only will Crash struggle to take care of himself as he navigates his own disability but helping with his sons will also be an additional obstacle.

We are hoping to raise enough money to help Crash with medical expenses as well as future expenses. His house will need to be made handicapped accessible. Eventually, we would like to see him be fitted for prosthetics and be able to attend physical therapy. He will also need everyday help and care around the house. Crash has a long road ahead of him, but being the sweet man he is, he is in good spirits. We will try to update his progress regularly. Thank you so much for helping us help him!
