The Velasquez family has experienced true tragedy as their home with all their valuables and belongings burned to the ground this Spring in an electrical fire.

Juan Velasquez has been a coach with PPA for the past 3 years and while him and his faily have their health, they have lost everything else. We are thankful noone was injured in this accident. As they work to re-build their home out of the ashes, it is up to us in the community to pick up our neighbors when they have fallen.

Juan and his family are dealing with this tragedy as well as can be expected, but they could definitely use the support of friends, family, and the community. Ours is a community of passion, and we are asking now for compassion and for help.

By donating to this cause, you are helping Juan Velasquez and his family not replace what was lost, but build their lives back up after having their home ripped away. Juan is a devoted community leader, working with kids from pre-k all the way to teenagers as a beloved soccer coach and teacher. This terrible thing could not have happened to a more amazing person.
