Help a young man recover from addiction and devastating loss

Help a Young Man Overcome Addiction and Heal From Loss

Hello everyone,

Today, I am reaching out with a heavy heart to share the heartbreaking story of a young man, only 28 years old, who desperately needs our help. Recently, he lost his father to brain cancer—a devastating loss that has deeply affected him during an already challenging time. For privacy reasons we do not want his name or face disclosed.

Over the past few months, he’s faced homelessness, hunger, and rejection in his search for help. Despite his efforts to recover, he was recently turned away from a recovery house simply because he couldn’t wait in the long lines to secure a spot. When he did wait for hours in line, he was still turned away. HE DESPERATELY wants this for himself, it’s not like others who refuse to go. He would go if just given that chance. His situation has become urgent, and he needs immediate access to a private and professional out of province detox program /detox center where he can get the professional assistance essential for his recovery.

This young man has begged for help and today you are the one who will listen to that cry for help and make a life changing donation. There are good people out there, please come forward and help him! His dad wanted him to get clean and this young man promised his father on his death bed he would do that, but he knows, he cannot do this alone, also 5 to 7 days in the city detox centre would not be enough,

His mother and family simply don’t have the financial means to support him in getting the treatment he needs. They are overwhelmed and heartbroken, feeling helpless in the face of his struggles.

We are raising funds to cover the costs of detox and initial treatment, travel expenses to get him there, giving him a chance to heal physically, emotionally, and mentally. Your generous donation can be a beacon of hope for him—a chance to start anew and find stability in his life again.

Every dollar counts, and your kindness can truly change the course of his future. Please consider donating and sharing this campaign to help us reach as many people as possible.

Thank you for your compassion, support, and for helping us bring light into a very dark time.

With gratitude. ❤️
