Support for Jakob's Family During this Heartbreaking Tragedy

On August 20th, 2025, the unimaginable happened — Jakob, age 13, with a birthday coming up in a couple of weeks, suffered a drowning accident. Despite the heroic efforts of medical teams, he is now on life support, and doctors have shared the devastating news that he has no brain activity. His family is devastated as they hold on to every precious moment with him.

While they face overwhelming grief, the family is also met with unexpected financial burdens — medical expenses, time away from work, and the heartbreaking arrangements no parent should ever have to plan.

This fundraiser has been created to help lift some of that weight off their shoulders. Your donations will go directly toward supporting the family with medical, living, and memorial costs.

Every donation, no matter the size, is a blessing. If you are unable to give, we ask that you please keep Jakob and his family in your prayers, and share this page to help spread the word.

Thank you for surrounding them with love and support during this unthinkable time.
