This Dad Is Nearing The End Of His Life And His Dream Is To Be Able To Take His Son To See The Ocean For The Very First Time

He extended his thanks to all of the incredible donors; “everyone who has reached out offering fishing trips, crabbing experiences, surfing lessons, dune buggy rides, and everything else you have offered me and Lincoln.”

His son will also have the opportunity to ride go-karts, and the organization Clean Sweep Tri-Cities is even planning a parade in the family’s honor.

The GoFundMe was met by a tremendous response, reaching almost $11,000 in just six days! They had enough funds to take his brother’s family with them, and even for Lincoln to choose how to donate any excess money.

“We still plan on donating some to a charity of Lincoln’s choice since I think it’s important to teach him that helping those in need is a very important quality to have,” his dad shared in an update.

Well-wishers hope that the trip is everything the family could want in this challenging time.

One wrote, “Some of my greatest memories in life are of my family and I at the Oregon coast.”

Another suggested using their donation to buy fish to feed the Oregon Aquarium’s seals. In total, everyone agreed that Donovan is an outstanding dad and that he and his son deserve the world.
