My name is Franky Mendoza, and I’m writing this as a father asking for help during one of the hardest moments our family has ever faced.Yo se como padre,Nunca Quise hacer esto, Pero Ahorita no se lo que me espera, esto es solo el comienzo.

My son, Erick Mendoza, is a 20-year-old from Mission, Texas. Erick is a kind, hardworking young man with his whole life ahead of him. Everything changed when Erick was diagnosed with testicular cancer.

At such a young age, cancer has brought physical, emotional, and financial challenges. Erick is currently focused on his health and treatment, which has made it difficult for him to work consistently. Between medical bills, medications, travel to appointments, and everyday living expenses, the costs have added up quickly.

We’ve set a goal of $5,000 to help cover:

Medical and treatment-related expenses

Transportation to and from appointments

Basic living costs while Erik focuses on healing

Our hope is to relieve some of the financial stress so Erick can focus fully on recovery. Any donation—no matter the amount—will make a difference. If you’re unable to donate, sharing this fundraiser or keeping Erik in your thoughts and prayers is deeply appreciated.

Thank you for your kindness, generosity, and support during this difficult time.
