Headline: On Friday, June 5th, 2026, our dear friend Curtis Shupe’s life was turned upside down when he was struck by an impaired driver. Now, his family needs our help to rally around him.
Dear Friends, Family, and Community,
We are reaching out to you with heavy hearts but hopeful spirits. On Friday, June 5th, Curtis Shupe was involved in a devastating accident after being run over by an impaired driver. He is currently fighting hard and receiving critical care at UPMC Presbyterian Hospital in Pittsburgh.
While Curtis is a fighter, the road ahead of him is going to be incredibly long, physically demanding, and financially exhausting. He faces a grueling journey of ongoing medical care, follow-up specialist appointments, and future surgeries.
As you can imagine, the emotional toll on his family is immense—and the financial burden shouldn't be something they have to face alone.
How Your Donations Will Help:
We are raising funds to directly support Curtis and his family during this crisis. Every dollar raised will go toward:
Travel & Lodging: Covering the ongoing expenses of getting his family to and from UPMC Presbyterian in Pittsburgh while he is hospitalized.
Post-Discharge Transportation: Ensuring Curtis has reliable transport to and from his numerous doctor appointments, follow-up care, and upcoming surgeries after he leaves the hospital.
Lost Wages for Jamie: Allowing his wife, Jamie, to take the necessary time off work without the fear of missing bills, so she can remain exactly where she needs to be—right by Curtis's side at the hospital.
