Tonight, one of our friends without housing asked me to watch her dog while she went inside the store. I picked the dog up and held him, making sure he was safe. When she stepped inside, the dog ran off looking for her in the busy parking lot, and I was worried he might get hit while running around. I reassured him, telling him she would be right back. He ran around everywhere, sniffing and searching, but after a little while, he went right back to the original spot she had asked me to watch, waiting faithfully for her. In the process, I made a new friend in that loyal little dog.
Moments like this show what loyalty really means—not just standing by friends, but standing up for anyone who needs a hand.
Right now, we have 9 people in need of a tent—and that number is rising every day. Every day, I’m being contacted by people who are struggling, without a safe place to sleep or a warm meal. We can make a difference together, but we need your help to continue. (Share)

He had nothing—no home, no language, no hope. Now, Ali Riza Doğan is giving back in the most powerful way.
When he first arrived in America in 1986, Ali Riza was completely alone and struggled just to survive. Years later, this NYC business owner opens his doors to people experiencing homelessness, offering warm meals and a safe place to sleep when temperatures drop.
Proof that even the hardest beginnings can grow into hope for others. 💛

Last year around this time, we met a man named Gator—and I’ll never forget it. We weren’t able to raise any funds for him, but that didn’t stop us. We got him where he needed to go anyway. On the ride, we talked about life, and he told me he was a Marine who had traveled to 48 states. He looked at me and said, “I’m not homeless… I’m just a man without a home—but I’m blessed because of people like you.” Man… that stuck with me. The weather was turning bad, but thanks to Abundant Life Texoma, we were able to get Gator set up with a brand new 2-man tent for him and his service dog. He said he usually travels light and doesn’t even use tents—but you should’ve seen his face when he realized this one was small and easy to carry. Like a kid at Christmas. He also wanted to thank the Methodist Church for letting him rest on their property, and we were thankful to cross paths with the Stinnett family that day. It truly felt like God lined everything up exactly how it was supposed to be.
Now here’s where it gets a little… Durant-style wild 😅
The VERY NEXT DAY, we went to get tags for the car we had just bought to help people—and boom… turns out the car was reported stolen. Yep. You can’t make this stuff up. So there I was… stranded in Ada, trying to do the right thing, and ended up needing a rescue myself 😂 Only us, right?
But even through all that chaos, we kept going—and we’re still going. Right now, we have 6 people in need of tents, and several others reaching out just needing basic hygiene items. The need hasn’t slowed down at all… if anything, it’s growing.
If you’ve ever wanted to help, now is the time. Even $5 can make a real difference for someone out here trying to survive.
💕 Thank y’all for always standing with us. We couldn’t do this without you. (Share if you care 🙏)

I’m going to say this, and I’m going to say it plainly.
For far too long, my family—myself, my wife, and even one of my adult children—have been targeted with lies, slander, and false accusations by hateful people in our community. These weren’t just rumors… these were coordinated attacks from individuals and groups in the Bryan County/Grayson County area who actively tried to turn people against us and destroy what we stand for.
Some of these same people went as far as sending death threats. Let that sink in.
Funny how those threats suddenly stopped once I made it clear this was no longer staying at a local level and would be taken to the state and federal level. What bothered me the most wasn’t just the lies—it was how this was handled behind our backs. My youngest children were pulled out of class and questioned about our family without our knowledge or consent. As a parent, that didn’t sit right with me, and I started making calls immediately. After digging and pushing for answers, I finally got a response from Oklahoma DHS.
And now, after everything…
The investigation is officially over.
The findings?
Unsubstantiated.
All of it—every accusation, every rumor, every attempt to paint us as something we are not—came back with nothing.
Yet warrants were issued.
We were charged.
We were arrested.
Our names and mugshots were dragged across social media by the same people sending threats and praying for our downfall.
That should never have happened. I have screenshots of fake profiles, messages, and posts where people openly wished for my family to be destroyed and for my children to be taken from me while celebrating anytime our family would take a hit. That level of hate is real—and it’s wrong. Despite all of it…
They almost destroyed my family—but they didn’t.
They almost broke us—but they didn’t. We bent, but we never broke.
Moving forward, I am seriously reconsidering the school environment for my children. What happened should have never happened the way it did, and we will be making decisions that protect our family first. Let me make this clear: We have been together over 20 years. We’ve raised our kids, and we’ve helped raise others we love along the way. We know who we are.
So don’t believe everything you read online. A lot of people spreading hate are dealing with their own unhappiness and choose to tear others down instead of fixing themselves.
And to those who have targeted us—
We don’t know you.
We’ve never met you.
And we have no desire to.
The legal troubles are over.
The truth is out.
The findings are Unsubstantiated.
Now do us a favor, and
Leave me and my family alone for good. Thanks!

Dad
