Our youngest son Ethan needs your Prayers

Friday Nov 20, Ethan Zimmerman was tragically run over by a construction truck, as he was in a crosswalk returning to Gallaudet University in Washington DC. He has multiple fractures and trauma injuries and has not yet regained consciousness. His pelvis and right leg were severly crushed. Ethan was born in Kiribati and grew up on Guam. His parents have been international development missionaries in the Pacific Islands all his life, and continue their work as counselors at Oasis Empowerment Center and are working to support victims of human trafficking and promoting recovery from abuse and addiction. 
Ethan Zimmerman has been studying education and sign language at Gallaudet University, a school committed to serving individuals with disabilities. In June, Ethan served as an intern with Guam's Manha Project, an annual day camp for Deaf and hard of hearing children working to increase language competency and to promote resilience.

Medical costs today are are simply staggering and Doctors are saying the road to his recovery will be a long journey. Ethan's mother, Allison, has relocated to DC to be able to support the recovery process. Your support will help with the many new costs that will be incurred because of this trauma recovery. 

We have set up a Paypal account at oasisguam@icloud.com as well as here in gofundme. It may also be possible to donate airmiles for the cause as we will need to still travel between Guam and DC in order to continue our responsibilities. We will look into that possibility. We will be able to keep people informed of Ethan's progress in this journey of recovery.



Or you can use Paypal as well to help support Ethan and his Trauma Recovery
