My name is David Buck. Earlier today I received heartbreaking news that the young daughter of one of our partners at Utilus has passed away. In response to the outpouring of care and concern from the Utilus team, we have set up a GoFundMe to help support this family during an unimaginably difficult time.

In addition to the deep grief of losing a child, the family is facing unexpected financial burdens — including travel costs, funeral expenses, and time away from work. To help ease this burden, Utilus will match every dollar donated by our team, up to the goal amount.

No parent should ever have to face this kind of loss, and certainly not with the added weight of financial stress. If you feel led to contribute, your gift will be matched and will go directly toward helping this family in their time of need. Because time is of the essence, this fundraiser will remain open only for a short period.

Please also keep this family in your thoughts and prayers, and remember that our partner will be unable to work for at least a week as they mourn and support their loved ones.

On behalf of Utilus, thank you for your compassion, prayers, and generosity.
