Fundraiser for Fred Holly

This is the incredible Mr. Fred!! We met him for only a moment about 2 1/2 years ago, when Emerson ran up to him on our bus and said “This is my favorite song”!! He did not hesitate for a moment to park the bus and join in on the fun.

I very quickly learned that Fred the bus driver is loved and adored all over the world. I received thousands of comments reflecting the same type of interaction that Fred had with Emerson… He was present, intentional and full of Joy with everyone he came into contact with. 

Within weeks of the video going viral, with some help - I was able to track down Fred and I'll never forget all the laughter and joy from our first conversation on the phone. We became instant friends and not a month has gone by without Fred checking in and making sure our family is ok.  Early on, Fred became unemployed due to Covid. But, It wasn’t until a couple days ago that I learned how dire his current situation is. 

I asked him to come up with a list of all his expenses now until he is able to return back to work.

$2200 would pay for all of Fred’s living expenses now through October 1st.  All donations made will go directly to Fred to pay for his rent, groceries, medication and putting his car back on the road.
