Our beloved friend, Fred, a devoted husband and father of two young children, has recently received the heartbreaking diagnosis of ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis). This progressive disease, which affects nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord, has already begun to impact his strength, mobility, and ability to provide for his family in the way he always has.
Despite the challenges ahead, Fred continues to show remarkable courage, positivity, and love for his kids. His greatest wish is to create as many meaningful moments with them as possible and to maintain a stable, supportive home as they navigate this journey together.
ALS care is extremely expensive—specialists, adaptive equipment, mobility aids, home modifications, and eventually full-time care. Fred is no longer able to work, placing a tremendous financial strain on the family.
We are asking for your help to ease this burden.
Your generosity will go directly toward:
-Medical treatments and ongoing care
-Adaptive equipment to keep Fred safe and mobile
-Home modifications to meet his changing needs
-Support for his family during an unimaginable time
-Lost income from Fred’s previous employment
Any donation, no matter the size, will make a meaningful difference. If you’re unable to give, sharing this fundraiser helps more than you know.
Thank you for supporting Fred, Grisel, Anthony and Christopher as they face this difficult journey. Your kindness gives them strength, hope, and precious time together.
