My name is Cade, and this year I’m not going home for Christmas.

For a lot of people, the holidays are full of love and family.
But for others — including me — this time of year can make you feel alone, disconnected, or forgotten.

Instead of sitting in that feeling, I decided to turn it into purpose.

I created ACOG Movement, a nonprofit-in-progress dedicated to helping people who feel alienated or isolated. The people who smile through their pain. The ones who drift further away from others without meaning to. The ones who fight battles in silence.
The ones who deserve community, not loneliness.

On December 20th, 2025, I’m hosting my first Toy Giveaway in San Diego to bring joy to kids and remind families that they’re not alone this holiday season.

❤️ WHY THIS MATTERS

 Isolation is one of the biggest contributors to depression and suicide — especially during the holidays.
 ACOG Movement’s mission is simple but powerful:
Bring people together.
Create community.
Spread love.
Give hope.

Every toy handed out…
Every meal or treat offered…
Every event we host…
Every life we touch…
…is one step toward preventing someone from feeling like they’re fighting alone.

  WHAT YOUR DONATION GOES TOWARD

 Your support will help fund:
• Toys for kids at the Dec. 20th Toy Giveaway
• Snacks, drinks & holiday treats for families
• Food donations — canned food, non-perishables, and small meal bags for families in need
• Event space rental & setup
• Care packages for teens & adults who feel alone
• Future giveaways throughout 2025
• Community gatherings focused on connection, love, and mental health support

Anything extra raised will go directly toward future ACOG Movement events, including:

⭐ UPCOMING 2026 PLANS

• Food drives & food distribution events
• School supply drives
• “ACOG Nights” — community meetups for people who feel isolated
• Mental health check-in events
• Father’s Day & Mother’s Day support events • Holiday gatherings for people spending holidays alone

This isn’t just charity.
It’s a movement.
A family.
A place where anyone can show up and feel belonging.
