Support Abel Garcia's Fight Against ALS

Donation protected
Life has a way of challenging us when we least expect it. Recently, our dear brother Abelardo “Abel” Garcia received a diagnosis that has forever changed his journey: ALS, also known as Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis or “Lou Gehrig's disease.” This progressive neurological condition affects muscle movement and control, gradually impacting the body. While the road ahead will be difficult, we are holding on to hope, love, and the strength that has always defined Abel’s spirit.

Abel has always been the kind of person you could count on. Whether it was helping a family member through tough times, showing up for a friend in need, or simply offering a steady hand and a kind heart, he has spent his life lifting others. Now, Abel needs our support more than ever.

Why We’re Asking for Help:

ALS brings with it more than just physical challenges. It introduces a wide range of expenses that go far beyond what insurance typically covers. From medical treatments and assistive devices to home care, mobility support, and the day-to-day costs of living, the financial strain can become overwhelming.

Abel will eventually need help with tasks many of us take for granted, and he can no longer work. We are reaching out to our community to help ease that burden and ensure Abel can focus on his health and comfort without the added stress of financial uncertainty.

How Your Support Helps:
Your donation will go directly toward:

• Medical care and equipment not fully covered by insurance
• Modifications to make Abel’s home more accessible
• In-home care and transportation assistance
• Daily living expenses as his condition progresses

A Personal Plea:
If you know Abel, you know he has always been there for others. Now it’s our turn to be there for him. Every contribution, no matter the size, makes a real difference. If you’re unable to give right now, we ask that you share this page with your network and keep Abel in your thoughts.

ALS is a difficult diagnosis, but with love, support, and community, Abel does not have to walk this road alone. Together, we can help give him the comfort, care, and dignity he deserves.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
With love and deep gratitude,
George Lerma and Family
