Getting Ed home

Donation protected
My name John (go by Mitchell) and I’m writing on behalf of my good friend Ed Bruce. Ed and I met in Boise Idaho a little over a decade ago and became fast friends. Ed is one of those people who make you smile the instant he walks in the room. His selflessness and good will is second only to his moral fortitude and genuine character. Ed is a great man.

A few years after knowing Ed, he built a business called “Gold Key Drivers.”


Gold key is recognized by hundreds in the Boise and Meridian area as their first call when they’ve had to much to drink and need to get their drunk butt home safe. What differentiates Gold Key from
the other cab like services in town, is that they’ll take your car home too.

As a connoisseur of late night libations, I can’t even begin to tell you how many times Ed’s business has come to my rescue. There are Hundreds of local “good timers” who will echo my sentiment. It’s absolutely impossible to quantify the number of lives that Ed and Gold Key Drivers have served and protected over the years.

*Late Sunday night, Ed and his employee Cliff had just completed a customer drop off and were headed to their next customer, when their car was struck by a drunk driver, causing Ed and Cliff life threatening injuries. Two days later, both are still in the ICU recovering from their injuries. Without going into too much detail, both Ed and Cliff have a long road ahead and their lives will be forever changed. While Cliff is now alert and mobile, it appears Ed’s journey home will be much more complicated.

I’ve created this page for Ed, Cliff and the Gold Key family who need us to help them get through this tragic time.

It is with a heavy heart, and huge lump in my throat that I ask for your support and donation to help Ed’s personal and work family get him home safe. I for one owe them a thousand times over.


It’s perfectly understandable if you can’t donate. If you have a story or testimony about Ed or any of the gold key family, please, please leave a comment so we can tell everyone how important Gold Key is to the community.
