On Saturday, August 16th, our dear friend Derek — the proud small business owner of Dreams and Duplication Turf Management — was the victim of a vicious, unprovoked stabbing. This senseless act of violence has left Derek with serious injuries and a long road to recovery.

Derek is not only a hardworking entrepreneur but also a loyal friend and a person who has always shown up for those around him. He has poured his heart into building his business and supporting others, and now it’s our turn to support him.

As Derek begins healing, he is facing overwhelming medical bills and expenses related to his recovery. Being unable to work while he recovers adds additional financial strain. Every donation will go directly toward helping Derek cover these medical costs, so he can focus fully on regaining his health and strength without the heavy weight of financial stress.

Please consider donating and sharing this campaign to help Derek during this unimaginable time. Let’s come together and show him that he is not alone, and that his friends and community stand with him every step of the way.
