Hello,
My name is Luis and I am reaching out on behalf of Damien and his family.
Damien is a 34-year-old Army Ranger veteran, father of four, youth soccer coach, and lifelong supporter of Spain’s national team.
He was recently diagnosed with Huntington’s Disease, a devastating neurodegenerative disease that affects movement, cognition, and behavior. His condition is progressing, and one of his biggest remaining dreams is to see Spain play in the World Cup in person in the United States.
The match falls on Father’s Day, which is also his son’s 11th birthday, making it even more meaningful for their family.
Damien has spent his life serving others—first serving our country in combat and later coaching youth soccer and mentoring young players in multiple communities.
We are simply asking if there is any way your organization could help with tickets, hospitality access, accommodations, or help us share his story with someone who might be able to assist.
His fundraiser and story can be found here:

Thank you for your time and consideration. Any help, guidance, or sharing of his story would mean the world to Damien and his family.
Sincerely,
Luis
