"Hello Buffalo" Dad Cap (White)

On Thursday, September 4th 2025, Travis was severely injured while waiting for the school bus on his second day of school. His bus was due to arrive at 6:56am, but at 6:52am a 17 year old driver crossed both lanes of traffic from the opposite side of the street, drove through the neighbors lawn, through his dad’s lawn, onto the driveway and hit his dads parked GMC Sierra pickup truck, pushing the truck into Travis and pinned Travis between the truck and tree causing severe, life-altering injuries to him.

By the grace of God, Travis will survive but he has a long road to recovery ahead of him both physically and mentally. So far Travis has had two surgeries for an amputation of part of his right leg.

Funds raised through sales of this design will be used for Travis for any medical expenses, needs and accommodations he may need for his daily living. Please consider a purchase or a donation to his online fundraiser.
