Team Ethan Murphy

Donation protected
My name is Keith Murphy.  I live in St. Petersburg, FL.  On November 16, 2018, my son, Ethan Murphy was shot close range in the chest, in St Petersburg, FL.  The bullet tore through his body, puncturing his lung and severing his spinal cord. Ethan was paralyzed from the chest  down shortly after he celebrated his 18th birthday.

Ethan faces an extraordinary uphill battle: he is tenacious, and up to the challenge, but he needs us all in his corner. The  financial burden of outfitting someone who is paraplegic is substantial -medical expenses, a wheelchair, retrofitting a home for wheelchair access, a wheelchair-accessible vehicle, and living expenses until he can rehabilitate and become re-trained and re-employ, will cost tens of thousands dollars. Pledge what you can, every dollar helps.  Every dollar donated will be used towards any uncovered medical expenses, a wheelchair, retrofitting his home for wheelchair access, a wheelchair accessible vehicle and any living expenses until he is rehabilitated, retrained and reemployed.  Thank you for all your support.
