MOOSE JAW — A local family is reaching out for community support after a serious vehicle accident left one Moose Jaw resident with a long and uncertain road to recovery.
A GoFundMe campaign was launched this month to help with medical bills, rehabilitation, and time away from work for Logan Simpson, who was recently injured in the accident. The fundraiser, organized by family friend Keneisha Horsnall, has set a goal of $5,000 to help ease the financial burden.
“Hi, my name is Keneisha. I am reaching out on behalf of Kathy's son, who was recently involved in a serious accident,” reads the campaign description. “This unexpected event has turned their world upside down, and while he is receiving the care he needs, the road to recovery will be long and challenging. With medical expenses, rehabilitation, and time away from work, the financial burden is overwhelming for their family.”
The family’s situation is compounded by the fact that Logan’s mother, Kathy Simpson, is well known for her generosity and community spirit. Horsnall said the fundraiser is also a way of giving back to someone who has given so much to others.
“Kathy has always been someone who gives so much of herself to others, and now it’s our turn to come together and support her and her son through this difficult time,” the appeal continues. “Any contribution — big or small — will make a meaningful difference while helping ease the weight they are carrying.”
As of Aug. 22, the campaign had raised $563 from 11 donations. Organizers are hopeful that more support will come as word spreads.
The money raised will go directly toward the costs of Logan’s recovery, which include specialized medical care, ongoing therapy, and everyday living expenses while the family navigates an uncertain future.
Accidents like this, Horsnall noted, can place immense financial stress on families already struggling with the emotional toll of recovery. Community support, she said, can make all the difference.
GoFundMe campaigns have become an increasingly common tool for families facing sudden medical crises. For many, these online appeals represent one of the only ways to rally support quickly and transparently, with updates posted directly to the campaign’s fundraising page.
In Logan’s case, the campaign is not only about raising money, but also about showing the family that they are not alone. Horsnall emphasized that the smallest acts of kindness — whether a financial contribution or simply sharing the campaign — can help lift some of the burden.
“Any contribution big or small will make a meaningful difference,” she wrote.
Community members who wish to support the fundraiser can do so by visiting the campaign page, titled “Kathy and Logan,” available through GoFundMe.com.
