Generous friends and family,

Jennifer is in need of our help.

As some of you may know, on Saturday, July 19th, 2025, Jennifer suffered a stroke while attending a drill competition. This stroke has left her with very little to no movement on the right side of her body. She has been in the hospital for over a week while undergoing numerous tests and scans and will soon begin at least two weeks of intensive rehabilitation to work on regaining movement in her right leg and arm. Doctors are still unsure what caused the stroke.

For those who know Jennifer, this news comes as a complete shock. She’s healthy, active, and always on the go—making this all the more difficult to process. She will be unable to work for the foreseeable future as she focuses on healing and recovery.

Her husband, Brian, has not left her side. He’s taken time off work to be her support system, uncertain when he’ll return. Their boys, Hunter and Fischer, have stepped up in a big way—taking care of household duties and the animals, doing everything they can to help keep things afloat.

This is a life-altering event for their family, and the adjustment has been incredibly challenging. On top of the emotional toll, the financial burden of missed wages and growing medical expenses is mounting quickly.

Jennifer and Brian have always been the first to show up for others—whether it was with their time, resources, or hearts. Now it’s our turn to show up for them.

If you’re able, please consider donating. Any amount, big or small, will go directly toward supporting their family during this difficult time. Your generosity and love mean more than words can say.

Let’s lift Jennifer up, just as she has lifted so many of us.

With heartfelt thanks,

The Stephens/Wise Family
