Their story

We are asking for your love, support, and generosity for Detective Mercedes, who was stabbed 10 times while off duty during a robbery of his necklaces. What began as an ordinary day quickly became a terrifying and traumatic situation for Detective Mercedes and his loved ones. Thankfully, he is currently in stable condition, but he has a long road ahead as he focuses on healing and recovering from his injuries.

Detective Mercedes has dedicated his life to protecting and serving others, and now it’s our turn to stand beside him. Any contribution, no matter how big or small, can help support Detective Mercedes and his family during this difficult time and ease some of the financial burden that comes with his recovery. If you’re unable to donate, sharing this fundraiser and keeping Detective Mercedes in your thoughts and prayers would mean so much.

Thank you for coming together to show Detective Mercedes and his family that they are not alone. Your kindness, generosity, and support can make a difference during this difficult chapter. ❤️
