My name is The Thanh Truong. I’m a U.S. Navy Veteran, a lifelong civil servant, a father, and a weekly volunteer at Bread of Life. I’ve spent my life serving my country and my community. Now, I’m turning to you for help during one of the hardest times my family has ever faced.

On June 20, 2025, my wife Kelley Quan became the victim of a traumatic hate crime. She was targeted, threatened, and harassed in our hometown of Madill, Oklahoma. This was not a misunderstanding — it was a deliberate and hateful act fueled by racism and prejudice. What’s worse, the local authorities have failed to act. Instead of protecting us, we feel ignored, silenced, and vulnerable.

We’re fighting to get Kelley Quan the justice and safety she deserves. But that fight isn’t easy — it takes legal fees, time, strength, and support. I’ve already faced retaliation for speaking up, and we’re now in fear not just for our dignity, but for our safety.

That’s why I’m asking for your help. Your donations will go toward:

    •    Legal fees to pursue justice

    •    Filing complaints and hiring civil rights representation

    •    Securing a safe living environment for our family

    •    Travel and protection needs during this ongoing crisis

We’ve always been the ones to give — whether through military service or helping others in our community. Now, we humbly ask for your support. Even the smallest donation makes a difference. If you can’t give, please share our story.

With your help, we can shine a light on injustice and protect Kelley Quan from further harm. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
