Our community is coming together to support Jayden Saroyan, a senior at Salinas High School, who recently suffered a medical crisis that will require long-term rehabilitation and ongoing medical care.

Jayden is known for his kindness, determination, and positive spirit. Whether he’s helping classmates and teammates, showing leadership on campus, or planning for life after graduation, Jayden has always been someone who lifts others up. Now it’s our turn to lift him up.

Jayden’s injury has left him facing a long and challenging recovery. After initial treatment, he will soon be transferring to a rehabilitation facility where he will begin the next phase of healing. His care team anticipates months of therapy, rehabilitation, and specialized support.

We are asking friends, family and the community to come together and help ease this burden so Jayden can focus fully on getting better. Your generosity will help cover out of pocket expenses such as:

Hospital and medical care

Long-term rehabilitation and physical therapy

Necessary medical equipment and supplies

Transportation and travel costs for his family

Please help support the Saroyan and Erickson family during his recovery. No amount is too small—every donation makes a meaningful difference.

If you’re unable to donate financially, please continue to pray for Jayden’s healing and for strength, peace, and endurance for his family during this difficult time. We are seeing God work in miraculous ways everyday, and trust in his plan. Your continued prayers mean more to them than you can imagine.

Thank you for standing with Jayden and the family. Your kindness, generosity, and prayers are deeply appreciated.

"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "Plans to prosper you and not harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." - Jeremiah 29:11
