Help Martin Olive Heal After Tragic Shooting

Dear Friends,

On January 27th, my best friend and one of the most vibrant, hilarious, and greatest humans I know, Martin Olive, was shot while standing outside his business in San Francisco. He was struck seven times, including in the face and lungs, and is currently fighting for his life in the ICU. While he’s expected to survive, the road to recovery will be long and challenging.

Martin is not just a beloved friend—he’s an irreplaceable part of the Bay Area community. His sharp wit and big heart even earned him a feature in Newsweek: Read the article here.

This isn’t Martin’s first fight to survive—he survived a brain aneurysm in the past. Clearly the world wants him here, and so do we. If you can donate anything, we’re raising funds to support Martin’s recovery and the hurdles he’ll face ahead, from medical bills to rebuilding his life. Any amount, no matter how small, will make a meaningful difference for him.

Thank you for taking the time to read this.
