Help Support Dave DeSouza and His Children After Tragic Loss

On behalf of Dave DeSouza and his two beautiful children, EJ (14) and Giana (12), we are reaching out to ask for your support during an unimaginable time of loss and hardship.

Dave recently lost his beloved wife and best friend to brain cancer at the age of just 48. They were married for 15 wonderful years, having tied the knot on April 17, 2010. Their love and commitment to each other were truly inspiring, and together they built a life centered around faith, family, and selfless service to others.

As many know, Dave is a dedicated public servant and firefighter who has always shown up for his community in times of crisis. Now, he is facing his own. The burden of funeral expenses, accumulated medical bills, and the urgent needs of raising two grieving children as a single father have created an overwhelming financial strain.

This fundraiser is being launched to help ease that burden. All donations will go directly toward:

Funeral and burial costs

Medical bills left behind from treatment

Immediate and future needs for EJ and Giana

Helping Dave stabilize during this time of deep emotional and financial hardship

Dave has spent his life running toward the call when others needed help. Today, we’re asking our community, friends, and fellow first responders to rally around him in his time of need.

Please consider donating, and if you’re unable to give, we ask that you share this page to help spread the word. Your kindness, prayers, and support mean more than words can express.

Thank you.

With love and gratitude,

Friends & Family of Dave DeSouza
