<div>Support Pedro: Deaf Ice Cream Vendor Recovery After Hit-and-Run
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Hello everyone,
</div>
<div>My name is Edith, and I am starting this fundraiser on behalf of my beloved brother, Pedro. On July 4th, Pedro was the victim of a devastating hit-and-run accident. While out operating his ice cream tricycle—something he works incredibly hard at every day—he was violently struck by a driver who immediately fled the scene, leaving him emotionally vulnerable and his specialized tricycle completely destroyed unable to speak to defend himself.
</div>
<div>Because Pedro is deaf and non-verbal, navigating the aftermath of this traumatic event presents unique challenges. I am stepping in as his sister to be his voice, ensure his story is heard, and manage this campaign to help him seek justice and recover.
</div>
<div>Pedro is a resilient, kind, and hard-working individual who brings joy to our community through his ice cream business. Despite his communication barriers, he has always found ways to connect with people and make an honest living. This tricycle wasn't just a vehicle to him; it was his entire livelihood, his passion, and his independence. Seeing him go through this breaks our family's hearts.
</div>
<div>The physical, emotional, and financial toll of this incident is immense, and Pedro faces a long road ahead. We are raising funds to help him get back on his feet. As his sister, I will ensure every dollar raised goes directly toward:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Legal Fees &amp; Seeking Justice: Retaining legal representation, hiring an investigator to help track down the driver, and covering any legal costs to hold the responsible party accountable.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Replacing His Tricycle: Purchasing and customizing a new ice cream tricycle so he can eventually regain his livelihood.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Basic Living Expenses: Supporting him with his day-to-day needs (rent, groceries, utilities) while he is unable to work during his recovery.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Any amount you can contribute—no matter how small—will make a massive difference in Pedro's life as he heals from this injustice. If you are unable to donate, please consider sharing this page with your friends, family, and social media networks to help us spread the word.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your kindness, prayers, and support during this incredibly difficult time.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>With gratitude,
</div>
<div>Edith

<div>Apoya a Pedro: Recuperación de vendedor sordo mudo de helados después de un atropello y fuga
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Hola a todos,
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Mi nombre es Edith, y estoy iniciando esta recaudación de fondos en nombre de mi querido hermano, Pedro. El 4 de julio, Pedro fue víctima de un devastador accidente de atropello y fuga. Mientras operaba su triciclo de helados, algo en lo que trabaja increíblemente duro todos los días, fue golpeado violentamente por un conductor que inmediatamente huyó de la escena, dejándolo emocionalmente vulnerable y su triciclo especializado completamente destruido incapaz de hablar para defenderse.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Debido a que Pedro es sordo mudo, navegar por las secuelas de este evento traumático presenta desafíos únicos. Estoy interviniendo como su hermana para ser su voz, asegurarme de que su historia sea escuchada y administrar esta campaña para ayudarlo a buscar justicia y recuperarse.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Pedro es un individuo resistente, amable y trabajador que trae alegría a nuestra comunidad a través de su negocio de helados. A pesar de sus barreras de comunicación, siempre ha encontrado formas de conectarse con la gente y ganarse la vida honestamente. Este triciclo no era solo un vehículo para él; era todo su sustento, su pasión y su independencia. Verlo pasar por esto rompe el corazón de nuestra familia.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>El costo físico, emocional y financiero de este incidente es inmenso, y Pedro se enfrenta a un largo camino por delante. Estamos recaudando fondos para ayudarlo a recuperarse. Como su hermana, me aseguraré de que cada dólar recaudado vaya directamente a:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Honorarios legales y búsqueda de justicia: Retener la representación legal, contratar a un investigador para ayudar a rastrear al conductor y cubrir cualquier costo legal para responsabilizar a la parte responsable.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Reemplazar su triciclo: Comprar y personalizar un nuevo triciclo de helado para que eventualmente pueda recuperar su sustento.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Gastos básicos de vida: Apoyarlo con sus necesidades diarias (alquiler, comestibles, servicios públicos) mientras no puede trabajar durante su recuperación.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Cualquier cantidad que puedas aportar, sin importar por muy pequeña que sea, marcará una gran diferencia en la vida de Pedro a medida que se cura de esta injusticia. Si no puede donar, considere compartir esta página con sus amigos, familiares y redes sociales para ayudarnos a correr la voz.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Gracias desde el fondo de nuestros corazones por su amabilidad, oraciones y apoyo durante este momento increíblemente difícil.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Con gratitud,
</div>
<div>Edith
</div>

</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This season, our football team not only triumphed on the field by winning the Division 2 City Championship but also achieved excellence in the classroom, earning the highest team GPA in the Los Angeles Unified School District. These incredible young athletes balanced the rigors of academics and the demands of competition, proving that hard work and determination lead to success.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>It wasn’t an easy road. Our students faced significant challenges this year, but they stood strong, stuck to the game plan, and supported one another every step of the way. Now, we want to celebrate their resilience and accomplishments in a meaningful way.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We’re raising funds to cover the entire teams cost of championship rings and awards ceremony to honor their extraordinary achievements this year. This celebration is not just about recognizing their success; it’s about showing them that their efforts matter and inspiring them to continue striving for greatness in all aspects of life.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Your donation, no matter the size, will help us give these student-athletes the recognition they deserve. Together, we can make this a moment they will treasure forever. Thank you for believing in our team and helping us celebrate their historic season!

Celebrate Our Champions' Historic Season

<div>On February 6th, 2024, our friend Spike lost his life on the set of Marvels WonderMan shoot at CBS Radford studios due to a potential structural failure. We are hoping the Production Company, The Facility, MBS, Marvel Studios handles things properly, but expect a long road fraught with attorney fees and expenses. In the mean time, bills will be mounting and the widow, Boom Operator Joanne W. will be left to deal with everything. Help if you're able, it's greatly appreciated.

Juan "Spike"  Osorio

<div>Hey everybody. If you know anything about me you know how important my pets are to me. A few days ago Thor my 5 year old husky was hospitalized with bacterial pneumonia. A month ago all three of my dogs ingested Advil and were hospitalized. The bills then were in excess of 12,000 dollars. Thor’s recent hospitalization on Wednesday has cost me 5,000 with an estimated 10k remaining. I’ve sold off all my stocks and assets and jewlery to keep these dogs alive and I wouldn’t be making this go fund me if I didn’t desperately need help. I’m working 2 gigs right now in addition to comedy ,so the money is coming in. But the hospital won’t put me on a payment plan. If you can help at all I will pay you back as soon as possible. 
</div>

Thor’s pneumonia treatment.

In the Jiu-Jitsu community, everyone knows that Kurt Osiander is one of a kind! He is known for his mega-popular Move Of The Week segments on YouTube, as well as his entertaining podcast appearances over the years. He is widely known for having no filter and speaking his mind honestly, and has become a beloved figure as a result.  But those that know him personally will tell you that beneath his wild exterior is a really warm and caring soul. Kurt is one of the most genuinely good people you'll ever meet. He is incredibly generous and cares deeply about his fans and students. He is also one of the most passionate instructors you'll ever come across. He lives and teaches the Jiu-Jitsu lifestyle and has done so for over 25 years. <br /><br />The last couple years have been rough on all of us. Kurt is going through a particularly tough time. His fledgling school Empire Jiu-Jitsu was massively impacted by the Covid restrictions and barely stayed afloat. But the bills have stacked up. To make things worse, Kurt has had a really rough series of health issues in the last several months that have been very difficult to overcome. It started  with a diagnosis of Type 2 Diabetes. This was discovered after Kurt, alone at home, had slipped into diabetic shock. For a week he was alone and in and out of consciousness, surviving by drinking from a faucet and eating small amounts of food he could crawl towards. Once he was finally able to plug in his phone, he was able to call for help. He was lucky to have survived and it was a very scary situation.  While in the hospital, he was diagnosed with type 2 Diabetes and also high blood pressure. After a couple weeks at home, he had to return to the hospital. This time, it was discovered that he had an abscess on his kidney. It needed to be surgically removed and he had to have a drain in his back as well as a catheter. He again was sent home and not long after had another emergency. The catheter had caused an infection and his body had become septic. He was rushed to the ER and eventually stabilized. As he was recovering, things unfortunately didn't get any easier. He returned home to find that while he was in the hospital, his house had been burglarized. Thousands of dollars of possessions were stolen including his prized antique sword collection he often talked about in interviews.<br />This has certainly been a really rough time period for Kurt. To make matters worse, he hasn't been medically cleared yet to return to teaching, which is his primary source of income. He is at risk of losing his home and has an overwhelming amount of bills piled up. He could really use your help!<br />Any contributions made will go towards his mortgage and medical bills for the next several months as he recovers and gets back to normal. Your donation means the world to him, and no contribution is too small!

Kurt Osiander medical recovery fund

<p>I do stand up comedy... well, I do it sitting down. I have Cerebral palsy and have been in a wheelchair my entire life. I want to keep pursuing my dream, but I depend on public transportation, which isn't always the most reliable means of travel. 
</p>
<p><br />
</p>
<p>If I'm going to continue touring comedy clubs and making progress in my career, I need a personal wheelchair accessible vehicle. 
</p>
<p><br />
</p>
<p>My goal is $31,000 
</p>
<p>$20,000 for the vehicle,
</p>
<p>$4,000 for insurance, 
</p>
<p>The rest for registration and maintenance on the vehicle. 
</p>
<p><br />
</p>
<p>Please consider donating to this cause. You put gas in my tank so I can get on the road and make you laugh. Thank for your time!

Help Joe Eurell get a wheelchair van for comedy

Joe Adams passed away on November 14th from a pulmonary embolism brought on by COVID-19. Joe’s family, friends, and community are completely heartbroken. He was a loving and devoted family man, an incredible friend and co-worker and an integral part of the Noble Community, volunteering countless hours to a town he loved. He was so much to so many and will be greatly missed!!

We are putting this together to help support Kim and the family with funeral and memorial expenses. We know there are so many that are hurting and want to help in a tangible way. If you’d prefer to give in a different manner, please message us and we’ll provide additional information. There is a Meal Train fundraiser in place along with a Memorial Fund through First State Bank. 

Please continue to lift Kim, Jake, Zach, Emma and Joe’s family up in prayer during this difficult time.  

“The Lord is close to the broken-hearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.”  Psalm 34:18

She was strong until the end and gave up her fight surrounded by family and friends. <br /><br /><br />We shed tears and ache for her family, but hopefully, we find comfort in fond memories of a spirit too early to leave that reminded us to live every day like it's your last, sing at the top of your lungs, and love unconditionally.<br /><br />Sometimes the words don’t reach.<br /><br /><br /><iframe media_type="0" media_id="5tQYIcoegEc" class="youtube-replace" title="YouTube video player" style="margin-bottom:20px;width:560px;height:315px;" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/5tQYIcoegEc/?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="1"></iframe><br /><br /><img src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/49456524_1594429845416533_r.jpeg" alt="49456524_1594429845416533_r.jpeg" width="100%" media_type="3" /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />======================================================================<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /> On June 22, Liza Jane (Elizabeth) Ruiz was involved in a drowning accident that placed her in the hospital for over a week. After receiving care, it has been determined that there is no hope for recovery and hospice is the best course of action.  She arrived home July 2 to live out the rest of her days in the comfort of her home surrounded by her family and friends. Her life expectancy is undetermined, but it could be days or weeks.<br /></span><br /><img src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/49456524_1594144633961280_r.jpeg" alt="49456524_1594144633961280_r.jpeg" width="100%" media_type="3" /><br />      Liza Jane was a vibrant, energetic 3 year old. Wise beyond her years and courageous beyond her size. Her laughter filled rooms and her spirit was a huge presence. Strong willed and fearless, she would often brave the dark to escort her older brother to the bathroom :).  She would dance and sing at the top of her lungs any time there was music playing in the house, which if you know Joe was constant. Liza made a decisive mark on anyone who knew her, she will be profoundly missed. <br /><br /><img src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/49456524_1594145049434096_r.jpeg" alt="49456524_1594145049434096_r.jpeg" width="100%" media_type="3" /><br />      Liza's mother Jennifer is one of the most passionate, courageous, and loving women we know. Her father Joel is one of the kindest, funniest, sweetest human beings you would ever meet, with generosity beyond compare. Her brother Ellis (6) is equally energetic and strong willed, who helped guide his sister through her young life with pride and fortitude. Liza looked forward to being with her older sister Aurora, who was always there when she needed her. Right now, the entire Ruiz family needs our help. <br /><br /><img src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/49456524_1594144895105932_r.jpeg" alt="49456524_1594144895105932_r.jpeg" width="100%" media_type="3" /><br />     This GoFundMe was set up by a small group of friends to ease the financial burden created by substantial medical costs, counseling costs (now and many years in the future), and any other unexpected expenses resulting from this horrific event. Our hope is all of our generosity and kindness can provide some relief to the Ruiz family in this unexplainable situation. <br /><br />     For now you can use this site as a resource for information, respectfully giving the Ruiz family the space  they need to deal with the immediate future.  You are welcome to comment below, share stories, and connect.  Updates will be provided as information is made available. <br /><br />No donation is too small, thank you.<br /><br />**My name is Spencer Combs and I have been a friend of Joel Ruiz for over 25 years. we worked together in the San Diego film community in the beginnings of our careers. After Joel moved to LA I lived with him while I would work in LA, commuting from SD. Our families have remained close through the years. As stated above, the funds will be used to mitigate substantial medical costs, counseling costs (now and many years in the future), loss of work, and any other unexpected expenses resulting from this horrific event. All donations will go directly to Joel and Jennifer Ruiz as they will be the sole beneficiaries.
