Our beloved Jarred Benitez -- exemplary husband/dad/friend, genius professional-level bartender, and everybody's most ripped friend -- suffered a complete rotator cuff tear during a recent powerlifting competition. Ugh!

His injury is quite extensive and requires surgery, which will take place on Tuesday 6/23. He's looking at 6 weeks in a sling with little to no movement and 3-6 months of PT before he can lift anything with that arm. He's in good spirits, but the family is anticipating a long road to recovery.

Let's come together to support the Benitez family the way they've supported each and every one of us over the years. All donations will go towards medical bills, recovery expenses, meals/takeout (Jarred is the family cook and cooking is hard with one arm!), household bills and income replacement (Emily will have miss out on and/or restructure her work schedule temporarily due to all of this)...the list goes on. This setback will be hard on the family in every way, particularly financially.

Door Dash / Uber Eats / etc. gift cards are also very appreciated! Send to Jarred's wife Emily at 619 - 823 - 2029

Let's help Jarred, Emily, and the kids not just survive but thrive through this ordeal. With all of our love and support behind him, Jarred will be crushing the bench world record at a future competition!
