β€οΈ OUR RIDING COMMUNITY NEEDS YOUR SUPPORT β€οΈ
At Yukon Moto Gear & Apparel, motorcycles are more than just a passion. They're about friendships, family, community, and looking out for one another.
Today, we're reaching out to our riding community and fellow Yukoners to ask for your support for a young rider and his family who are facing an unimaginable journey.
On September 20th, Wyatt, the son of close family friends of ours, Meghan and Dylan, was involved in a devastating dirt bike accident that resulted in a severe spinal cord injury.
Wyatt was medevac'd from Whitehorse to BC Children's Hospital in Vancouver, where he underwent major spinal surgery. Sadly, his injuries have left him with quadriplegia, and he now faces a lifetime of challenges, rehabilitation, and specialized care.
Despite everything he has been through, Wyatt has shown incredible strength, courage, and determination as he begins his long road to recovery. β€οΈ
His parents, Meghan and Dylan, have remained by his side in Vancouver, putting their work and everyday lives on hold to support their son.
The financial challenges this family faces are significant. Funds raised will help with their immediate living expenses while in Vancouver, as well as Wyatt's long-term medical equipment, rehabilitation needs, home modifications, and ongoing care.
ποΈ THE RIDING COMMUNITY IS A FAMILY, AND FAMILY LOOKS OUT FOR EACH OTHER.
As fellow riders, parents, and members of this community, this tragedy hits especially close to home for us.
We know how incredibly supportive the Yukon riding community can be, and we're asking everyone to come together to help Wyatt and his family through this difficult time.
β€οΈ If you're able to donate, any amount will make a difference.
β€οΈ If you're unable to donate, please consider sharing this fundraiser to help spread the word.
Our hearts are with Wyatt, Meghan, Dylan, and their entire family. We hope that by coming together, we can help ease some of their financial worries so they can focus on what matters most β Wyatt and his future.
Please take a moment to read Wyatt's story and consider supporting his GoFundMe fundraiser linked below.
From all of us at Yukon Moto Gear & Apparel, thank you for helping us show this family what our riding community is truly made of.
