Support Stephanie's Journey to Honor Justin

My name is Stephanie, and I am reaching out to you today with a heavy heart and a deep sense of purpose. On February 22, 2022, I lost my beloved son, Justin Bruce Forrester, at the tender age of 22. The pain of losing Justin is something I carry with me every day, but I have found strength in remembering him and raising awareness about the dangers of overdose.

On August 31st, I have been invited to speak at the International Overdose Awareness and Remembrance Walk and Vigil, which will be held at the Santa Barbara Courthouse Sunken Gardens at 7:00 PM. This event is incredibly important to me, as it offers a chance to honor Justin's memory and connect with others who have experienced similar losses. Being part of this vigil would mean the world to me, but I need your help to get there.

The journey to Santa Barbara, along with the associated costs of travel and accommodation, is beyond my current means. I am humbly asking for your support to make this trip possible. Your generosity will not only help me attend and speak at this vigil, but also allow me to continue my advocacy work in Justin's name, spreading awareness and helping to prevent other families from experiencing the same pain.

Every donation, no matter how small, will bring me one step closer to being able to honor my son in the way he deserves. If you’re unable to contribute financially, I completely understand, but please consider sharing this campaign with others who might be able to help.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your kindness, your support, and your love during this difficult time. Together, we can keep Justin’s memory alive and make a difference in the fight against overdose.

With heartfelt gratitude,

Stephanie
