Supporting Stephen’s Road to Recovery

Donation protected
Stephen is more than just a coworker—he’s family. He brings light, humor, and genuine kindness into our workplace every single day. He is compassionate, caring, and always willing to lend a hand or offer a smile. If you’ve had the chance to work alongside him, you know the positive energy he brings and how deeply he cares about others.

Stephen is also a proud U.S. veteran, and his sense of service extends far beyond his time in uniform. He continues to show up for those around him with empathy, dedication, and heart.

Recently, Stephen experienced a serious and unexpected medical emergency that has kept him out of work. At this time, we don’t know what his road to recovery will look like or how long it may take. During this uncertain time, he is facing mounting medical expenses along with the everyday costs of living that don’t pause when life takes an unexpected turn.

This fundraiser is a way for us—his work family and community—to show up for him the way he has shown up for so many of us. All donations will go directly toward helping cover medical bills and basic living expenses, allowing Stephen to focus on healing without added financial stress. His absence has been deeply felt by our team, and we want to do everything we can to support him as he focuses on his recovery.

Any contribution, no matter the size, means so much. And if you’re unable to donate, sharing this page or sending Stephen a message of support is just as appreciated.

Thank you for helping us support someone who has given so much to others and truly deserves it.
