<div>Matthew Pendergrass is a high school senior who has always given back to his community. He plays basketball, volunteers at the local fire department, and is known for his kindness and dedication. His mother, Marie, works at the community waste center despite her ongoing health challenges. Together, they lived with Matthew’s grandmother, who was a vital part of their lives and a main source of financial support.

<div>Recently, Matthew and Marie lost their beloved grandmother and mother. Her passing has left a significant emotional and financial gap in their lives, and this loss will inevitably, make it difficult for them to keep up. Especially as Matthew approaches the important milestone of his senior year.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are reaching out to our community to help support Matthew during this difficult time. Your donation will go directly toward daily needs and help make his senior year a little brighter by setting him up for success as he enters into the next phase of life after high school. Our goal is to ensure that Matthew has the opportunity to attend college without worrying about his family's finances. 
</div>

</div>
<div>If you feel compelled to give, we THANK YOU! But more importantly, please share this with your friends and family. Your support truly means the world to us and to Matthew.
</div>

</div>
<div>May God bless you!
