Support Oli's Recovery After Severe Accident

Donation protected

On Friday June 13th 2025, our friend Oli was in a serious car accident while riding as a passenger. The cause of the crash is still unknown, but the injuries he sustained were extensive and life-altering.

Oli suffered nine fractures in his vertebrae, a possibly broken nose, chipped teeth, and full-body trauma. He spent six days in the hospital — including three in the ICU — and now faces a long and difficult road to recovery. While he’s stable and home now, the impact of his injuries will follow him for a long time.

Oli is just 20 years old. He’s been working full-time at Trader Joe’s, completely supporting himself and working hard to pay off his car. He’s passionate about fashion, training in bare-knuckle MMA, and spending time with his friends. He’s strong, independent, and someone who’s always chasing his goals — this accident put all of that on pause.

Right now, Oli can’t work. He’s in pain, facing months of rehabilitation, and will be dealing with physical limitations for the foreseeable future. His family has flown in from all across the country to support him, but the financial weight is overwhelming. While insurance will help with some of the costs, it doesn’t come close to covering everything — including hospital bills, ongoing medical treatment, dental repairs, physical therapy, and basic living expenses.

We’re asking for your help to give Oli the support he needs during this incredibly difficult time. Every donation goes directly toward his recovery. If you’re not able to give, please consider sharing this fundraiser with others who might be able to help.

Oli has always been the one to show up for the people he loves — now it’s our turn to show up for him.
