Fundraiser for family in Ecuador
Donation protected
Hello my friends,
My name is Aquiles, I was born and raised in Portoviejo-Ecuador but now I live in Fort Collins, CO. I became a U.S. Citizen 4 years ago, it has been a blessing. My story is nothing really special but if you help me achieve this goal I can assure your donation will be a huge part of making something special in my life. I’m not doing this fundraiser for the government or non-trusted charities, I’m raising this money directly for family relatives I grew up with because they have lost it all from the earthquake that hit and destroyed my hometown on April 16th this year.
Fernando and Jessenia have 3 little ones, they are scared and sick, their grandma was also injured and she has been in the hospital ever since. Aftershocks keep on happening every other day. Since this day I’ve been feeling helpless and worried about their situation, also knowing that other friends have died and learning about the countless homeless kids it just breaks my heart.
Now I’m on this mission to raise money and send it directly to them to help them overcome their struggles so they can buy land, build a new house and pay medical bills, the problem is that they are living momentarily in someone elses place. They've found a few land spots they could buy but now houses, apartments and land prices are in high demand due to this nightmare and they have a couple of months to move out from where they are living right now. This is why I only have a short period of time to raise as much as I can to help them.
Jessenia is my cousin and her family was very low income before this catastrophe; even though they have always been there for me and others since I was little, this family is one of the best families I have ever known and your help will mean the world to me, please help me make a change for Jandry, Dayanna and Nathy and their parents Fernando and Jessenia. Your donation will be forever grateful.
My band, https://www.facebook.com/bloodpollutionrocks
is planning a benefit show with a chance to win prizes to help raise money to directly donate to my family. All of the proceeds of this concert and auction will go directly to help them rebuild their home.
We are also seeking monetary donations of any amount via this GoFundMe page to contribute funds directly. This fundraiser is not affiliated with any government or charity, and all proceeds will go directly to my family in Portoviejo.
The benefit show will take place on Friday, November 4th at Ricky B's Sports Pub and Music Venue on 522 Main Street in Windor, CO. We would be glad to provide you with a poster so that you can help us advertise for this event.
Please contact me if you have any questions, or if you are willing to donate to or sponsor this event. I would be happy to to discuss the event in further detail.
Thank you for considering a donation to our local fundraising event on November 4th, 2016. I look forward to hearing from you soon.
