Her 20th Birthday Wish

Donation protected
"Have you ever looked up at the moon at night, and wondered If I was looking at that same moon? And within that brief moment we were together?" - Joe Dirt

Here's the story:
     Grey, the girl from Indiana, moved to Turkey about a year ago, and I Robert Gargiulo want to finally meet her back in the United States. Having us meet for the first time for her birthday on March 14th would be the best birthday gift she could ask for. Help by donating to fly her in. Please keep reading to know the specifics, I think you should know.

Who am I?:

     I'm a struggling musician from New York City who has traveled the Van's Warped Tour as a merchandise assistant. Although I've been all over the states, I've never met a girl like Grey. I'm usually not one to give myself to somebody, but with her it feels effortless. How did we meet? #Instagram

How I feel:

James, Joe, and Riley say, "I've never seen you like this before."

      truth is I've never been dedicated to someone this way.

     I've opened up completely for the first time with someone and I want to continue to do so. I've realized that being a recluse is not the way to live my life.

     I want the good and the bad and everything that comes with her. I want to start my life instead of living on the top of an empty hourglass.

     I wake up and the first thing I check is my phone. Her good morning video's arrive at 2am.

     Her 20th birthday wish:

"I wish I was there with you." I hear that four times a day, and It's getting harder to hear it as the time passes.

     Her father lives in Indiana, a two hour plane ride from New York City.

     I am asking you to help me grab an airfare ticket from Turkey to Indiana by donating. 

     I'm working full time as an assistant plumber. I've been saving my money to meet her in Indiana and save for a down payment on an apartment for us.

As you may or may not know, living expenses and rent is very high in the city that never sleeps.

She hopes to go to College in New York when we have our own place.

I know if she could see her father for her birthday and me for the first time, she wouldn't be happier.

Love knows no distance, but money does. Help me bring her here, so we can start our adult lives together.

     What you get and what you see:

     I wrote her a love song about our experience, I've uploaded the video (you may have to click the link to Youtube). 

     When fully funded I will upload a video of me playing the full song again for her in the airport when we first meet. You will see her reaction, my reaction, and the $1,500.00 song that pours everything I'm built on out for Grey and you.

     Valentine's day has just passed and even though through technology we face time, the 5,011 mile distance didn't do us justice.
     
     Every donation counts, it will pay for the plane tickets from Turkey to Indiana and Indiana to New York City.
   
     Help me bring her to the states, hear my love song, see our love exposed on the internet, be the person I will never forget.

Thank You,
Love Always,

Rob
