<div><strong>In Loving Memory of my son, Joshua</strong>
</div>
<div><em>Spreading warmth, hope, and love — one coat at a time.</em>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>My son Joshua was a proud Marine with an even prouder heart. He cared deeply about Veterans, the homeless, and anyone who needed a little extra kindness. His compassion showed in everything he did — he noticed people others passed by, and he always tried to help.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>After losing Joshua, I wanted to find a way to keep his spirit alive. In 2020, I started <strong>Joshua’s Jackets</strong> in his honor — a winter coat fundraiser to help people experiencing homelessness in Albuquerque. Thanks to the incredible generosity of this community, we’ve donated almost 300 coats, hats, and socks to people who needed them most.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This year, we’re doing it again. And I hope we can make an even bigger impact.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>What Your Donation Supports</strong>
</div>
<div>Every dollar given goes directly toward purchasing new winter coats, hats, and socks for people who are unhoused or struggling through the cold New Mexico winter.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This year, Joshua’s Jackets will be donating coats to:
</div>
<ul>
<li>VA New Mexico Veterans Healthcare System
</li>
<li>The Good Shepherd Center (gscnm.org)
</li>
<li>Children, Youth &amp; Families Youth Program
</li>
</ul>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Why This Matters</strong>
</div>
<div>Winters in Albuquerque can be harsh, especially for those without a warm place to go. A coat isn’t just a coat — it’s safety, dignity, and a reminder that someone cares.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>For me, it’s also a way to keep Joshua’s light shining in the world.
</div>
<div>Every coat we give out feels like one more act of kindness he would’ve done himself.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>How You Can Help</strong>
</div>
<div>Donate if you can
</div>
<div>Share this fundraiser with others
</div>
<div>Keep Joshua’s memory alive through acts of kindness
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Every coat given = one heart warmed.</strong>
</div>
<div><em>Thank you for helping me honor Joshua’s legacy in such a meaningful way. </em>
