<div>Our family is facing one of the most heartbreaking moments of our lives. The morning of Wednesday the 12th, while my husband was getting ready to start working there was a multi agency raid that was occurring in a building next to his job and my husband happened to be at his job at the wrong time and happened to be detain and ask if he knew the people in the building next door which this was a new job location not just for himself but for his boss as well something we never imagined could be possible became reality he was being tested to admit he knew the workers which he remained positive not nervous and said he did not know them or did not work for them and they didn’t allow my husband the chance to reach out to his boss to confirm his word was legitimate as well as or call me when he did not want to share his name or where he was from then from there the sheriff then handed him over to the DEA and they are the ones who handed him over to ICE. A lot of unlawful things occurred from this detainment and I would love for us to come togheter to keep my husband here were he belongs with his family. We are now in a race against time to raise the funds needed for legal representation to stop his deportation and keep our family together.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>My husband came to the U.S. in 2004. Since then he has created a life here. He is a husband, as well as a loving father to his two biological children Luis Angel and Karim, and to 5 other step children. Karim is our child who relies heavily on his fathers presence as he is diagnosed with autism and requires a speech device to speak. But it’s also very important to mention he has raised his step children since young children the oldest only being 8 at the time and the youngest step child being 1 and he is now 7. So this has not only been hard on myself but as well as my children.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>He is our rock, our foundation. The one we go to for advice, for laughter, for comfort. He has spent decades working hard and building something meaningful for his family. He greets everyone with warmth and humor, and his love touches everyone he meets.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are deeply afraid, not only of losing him, but for the conditions he may face in ICE custody. We’ve seen members of our community suffer, sleeping on concrete floors wrapped in aluminum blankets and in the worst cases, losing their lives. We cannot let that happen to my husband or the father of my kids.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are pleading for any kind of help; no amount is too small. Legal defense in immigration court is costly, but it’s our only hope to bring my husband back home where he belongs. Every dollar raised will go directly to his legal fees and help us fight for his right to stay in the country he has called home for over 20 years.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Please help us keep our family whole. Share, donate, pray, whatever you can do means the world to us. Thank you and God Bless everyone of you.

Help Keep Our Family Together

<div>The Drift Collective is home to more than 65 local artists, makers, and small businesses, providing a place to sell their work, connect with the community, and earn a fair return for what they create. More than a gathering space in downtown Ashland, the Drift exists to support others. Since opening our doors late November of 2024, we've paid out over $400,000 to vendors and created a place built on community first, collaboration over competition, and fair compensation over extraction.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>As we prepare to leave our current location at the end of our lease, we're raising $50,000 to help us transition into a new home base and continue serving our community. These funds will cover the essential costs of relocating—including rent and deposits, moving and storage, permits and licensing, renovations, equipment, and the legal and financial support needed as we begin transitioning The Drift into a community-centered cooperative business model.

<div>Help Kevin Kennedy Recover After a Devastating Stroke
</div>
<div>In early March, Kevin Kennedy suffered a blood clot stroke that impaired the left side of his body. He still has his mental faculties and is healing. The doctors say the there is a 6-12 month recovery period. He is working hard to recover within 3-6 months from now.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Kevin urgently needs financial support to help cover overwhelming medical expenses, and living expenses. He has now transitioned home, where he works to rebuild strength and rehabilitate. In order to stay he is seeking funds for 6-12 months in order to recover at home.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Kevin is also a devoted father to his children, Vayle and Hudson. As the family’s primary provider, he has always worked hard to support them with essentials like housing, food, schooling, and everyday needs. His sudden medical crisis has placed enormous financial strain on the entire family. Your support would help ease the burden of raising a family during this recovery.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Please consider donating and sharing Kevin’s story with others. Every act of kindness and support brings him one step closer to healing. Thank you, for your kindness and support. It means so much to us.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Please feel free to check in with Kevin anytime, he would love to hear from you!

Help Kevin after his stroke

<div>I'm obsessed with "community spaces" and I believe these are what make the world a better place. I decided to support Kimber &amp; Dave by putting a crowdfunding campaign together for their long overdue brewery, art gallery, and garden expansion because I believe in their community space. Have you seen the humble setup they make beer for us with? Did you know their hours are limited because they can't (legally) brew and be open at the same time? Well I didn't either. These guys work their butts off and we'd be none the wiser because of the amazing spirit they give to us night after night alongside their delicious fresh local beer.

</div>

<div>Not to mention the non-profits they support through creative fundraising like crafting their merch at Talent Maker City so they can support them, and non-profit donations from Talent Strong Ale sales.

</div>

<div>It's easy for me to get behind Art Bop Beer Co. because I am experiencing their vision come to life. I love going to their beer garden, enjoying a bebop brown, and soaking up the inspiration that is ABBC.

</div>

<div>Kimber &amp; Dave give so much to our community; not only in good times and fresh beer, but also through their non-profit support efforts. We now have an opportunity to give back to them, to help their dreams continue to blossom so they can continue brewing in Talent.

</div>

<div>Will you join me in helping save Art Bop?

<div><em>A Message from Dave &amp; Kimber</em>

</div>

<div><em>"We are grateful to the community for encouraging us to reach for our dreams of continuing Art Bop at 102 Talent Avenue. Every little bit helps, from drinking beer and buying merchandise while we are still operational to donating 50 dollars or more for the revitalization of Art Bop after the unfortunate loss of our current location. It is because of your support that we are able to keep the positivity and the energy to help the city of Talent thrive. All small towns deserve to have a small brewery/art hub and we are honored to be of service to you."</em>
