Help Samuel compete at the 2025 Flag Football Championships!

We’re beyond excited to share that Samuel and his flag football team have qualified for the NFL's 2025 Flag Football National Championships in Canton, Ohio — at none other than the Pro Football Hall of Fame! This is a once-in-a-lifetime chance for these talented young athletes to showcase their skills on a national stage and live out a dream many can only imagine.

While the team is organizing group fundraisers to help offset costs, we’re also raising funds personally to cover the travel and lodging expenses for Samuel and Aaron, who will be going as his chaperone.

As many of you know, the past year has been financially challenging for our family. Aaron was laid off for about six months in early 2024, and shortly after, Carissa faced a layoff that lasted eight months. Thankfully, we’re both now working jobs we love and are incredibly grateful for God’s provision through these tough times. That said, we’re still catching up from the extended period of living on a single income.

That’s why we’re reaching out to our amazing community — friends, family, and supporters — for help in making this trip possible for Samuel. Every donation, share, or encouraging word makes a difference and brings us one step closer to getting him to Canton.

Thank you so much for your kindness, generosity, and support — we’re truly grateful to have you on this journey with us!

Many thanks from the entire Kotyluk/Twohy family!
