Dear friends,

I want to share something personal with you. Many of you have been more than customers — you’ve been part of the WeWash journey. Recently, my life took an unexpected turn: my visa expired, and when I tried to renew it, I was detained and ultimately deported. This experience was shocking and painful, and it has left me facing significant recovery costs.

Some kind people have already offered support through Venmo and other means, for which I’m deeply grateful. I’ve never been one to ask for handouts, but many have asked how they could help, and this GoFundMe is a way to do so. Please know there is absolutely no obligation—your empathy and understanding are more than enough.

Thank you for supporting me and believing in WeWash. Your kindness means the world as I work to get back on my feet.

The amount goal was set randomly as I’m not expecting a specific amount, anything helps.

With gratitude,

David
