Reuben has spent the last 12 years as a first responder—showing up for others on their worst days, without hesitation. Now, he’s the one in crisis.

After unexpectedly losing his job, Reuben also lost his health insurance overnight. At the same time, his child, Brianna, is in the middle of ongoing medical treatment for chronic ulcerative colitis that she cannot miss. 

Every 6 weeks, Brianna undergoes critical hospital care that costs $11,000 per visit—treatment that was once fully covered. Now, it must be paid out of pocket.

Her next treatment is scheduled for Tuesday, April 28, 2026… and Reuben is still $7,000 short.

This isn’t optional care. This isn’t something that can be delayed. This is what’s keeping Brianna going.

In a matter of weeks, one unexpected life change has placed an unimaginable burden on a father who has spent years helping others. No one prepares for this kind of moment—but together, we can step in where the system has fallen short.

If you’re able to give anything at all—no amount is too small—it will go directly toward making sure Brianna gets the care she urgently needs.

If you can’t donate, please share this. Getting the word out could make all the difference.

Let’s come together for Reuben, just like he has done for so many others.

Please help us reach this goal before Tuesday April 28th 2026.
