Help a small family owned business regrow

Donation protected
Hi my name is William and my wife, Devin, and I own Wicked Outdoors LLC together for the past 5 and a half years. We have 5 children! Our day to day home life is FULL! My wife and I both grew up here in Jax and also had a hard past as children but this isn’t why we are here today! We are here today because this weekend our company equipment trucks and trailers were vandalized with cuss words, gang signs, and hateful messages spray painted all over everything! Tool boxes prided wide open, tools stolen, all last weeks paperwork and receipts set on fire, windows busted out, wires cut, hoses to our boom arm cut, seats ripped apart, steering column broken,(looks as if they tried to steal the whole truck) the bucket truck motor smashed up that goes to the boom, two batteries were demolished, popped out both door locks, destroyed both door handles, three tires slashed, holes poked into thing, oil pour into the radiator fluid, sprayed painted over the mirrors and both headlights, smashed the roof in jumping on the top of the truck, sprayed painted all over the trailer and the skid steer, painted over the skid steer seat, and cut two big gashes into the tracks of our skid steer and need replaced, they stole personal item I can’t get back and what personal items I had left they destroyed to an oblivion. Then took all of our oils and flammable fluids for the engines of our trucks and poured it all over the front hood of our truck. The whole truck honestly needs replaced! The amount of damage is just unimaginable! Parking under cameras at our school job in a locked gate doesn’t matter anymore. The people responsible for this do not fully understand how harshly their actions have affected us. Our insurance will not help us at all because we don’t have the additional policy needed, even after verifying they would cover in cases like this. They smashed the door off my brand new skid, ripped and paint the seats all over the equipment and not to mention we have 5 kids 2.5-6–7-11-14 and our 2.5 year old is full blown autistic and is epileptic! He suffers from grandmal seizures. So with his medical bills alone we are downing. Because insurance will only pay for so much with his medical condition and we have hardly to no family here in Jacksonville Florida. My wife and I met when we were kids, feel in love with each other and had some beautiful kids that we live for on a daily bases! Their mom is a rock star! She is not your typical mom or wife! Complete bad ass is all I can say about her and hope my daughters grow up to be strong women like her! We are a family owned business and is ran by me and my wife. We do all the work ourselves and we teach are children how to operate, run and mange a successful business. Working days and nights to get the jobs done right and on time. We work with DCPS and do all their tree care needs. Our company has grown a lot from all of our hard work, blood, sweat, tears and endless nights! But it’s been a hard year for us as our son had a severe seizure last July and we thought we lost him for a while! But he is our star and rock! One day we want our children to take over this company that we build by ourselves from the ground up. And we have to rebuild and regrow so they don’t have to work as hard as we did in life. We don’t ever ask for anything! Even when our next dollar is questioned! But this isn’t something we can do alone! I kindly and graciously ask for anything that anyone can do to help us out and to help save a woman owned small family business! Thank you for reading our story and may God bless everyone!
