About the campaign

In Memory of my late son Evan who passed away suddenly on November 22, 2019 from an accidental overdose. I hope to create awareness as there has always been a big stigma about this sort of death which is way too common today. Evan loved to help the homeless. He would always stop to talk to the homeless, even offering a meal. Occasionally sharing a game of chess in one of the metro stations as well. As a young boy Evan would always reach in his pocket and give his last dollar to whomever was looking. A massive heart. Mental health issues are so prominent today. We need to find away to help those who are so vulnerable. My family and Friends will serve Saturday 23rd of November 2024 hundreds of homeless people at the Old Brewery Mission. There is no deeper pain in life then to lose a child. Too many it is so long ago since Evan passed to me it is like yesterday. This helps my soul paying forward in my beloved Evans name. We never think it will happen to us...... This will be our second time serving. Thank you for your support in the memory of my late son Evan. It means the world to me and my family xoxo

À la mémoire de mon défunt fils Evan qui est décédé subitement le 22 novembre 2019 a la suite d’une surdose accidentelle. J’espère sensibiliser les gens, car il y a toujours eu une grande stigmatisation de ce genre de deces, ce qui est beaucoup trop courant aujourd’hui. Evan aimait aider les sans-abris. Il s’arrêtait toujours pour parler aux sans-abris, allant même jusqu’à leur offrir un repas. De temps en temps, il partageait une partie d’échec dans l’une des stations de métro. Quand il était jeune, Evan mettait toujours la main dans sa poche et donnait son dernier dollar à quiconque le regardait. Un cœur énorme. Les problèmes de santé mentales sont si importants aujourd’hui. Nous devons trouver des moyens d’aider ceux qui sont si vulnérables. Ma famille et mes amis avons choisi le 23 novembre 2024 au Old Brewery Mission. Il n’y a pas de douleur plus profonde dans la vie que de perdre un enfant. Il me semble que le deces d’Evan est arrive comme si c’était hier. Cela aide mon âme à donner au suivant dans mon bien-aimé Evan. Nous ne pensons jamais que cela nous arrivera...... Ce sera la deuxième fois que nous servirons les sans-abris. Merci pour vos donations à la mémoire de notre bien-aimé Evan. Cela signifie beaucoup pour moi et ma famille. xoxo
