Raising for Abandofbrothers
Event date:
There was a time not long ago where my life was completely out of control. Drink. Drugs. Chaos. I lost who I was… and if I’m honest, I didn’t care if I ever found myself again.
In 2024, I went to Spain with one intention to end my life. That’s how low it got. That’s how far I’d fallen. But somehow, I’m still here.
And that’s because of the people who refused to let me disappear. A Band of Brothers didn’t just support me… they saved me. They gave me something I didn’t think I deserved anymore hope, brotherhood, and a reason to keep going. They stood by me when I couldn’t stand on my own. And one man in particular Daniel Foley I owe you more than words can ever express. You showed me belief when I had none left in myself.
Today, I’m rebuilding. I’m sober. I’m present. I’m fighting every single day not just for me, but for my family, and for anyone else who feels like there’s no way out. Now I want to give something back. I’m raising money for A Band of Brothers so they can keep doing what they did for me changing lives, rebuilding men, and giving people a second chance.
If you can donate, share, or even just take a moment to read this… it means more than you know. Because someone out there is where I was.
And they need to know there’s a way back.
