DELPHOS—SKERRRT! Crunch. Bang. Thud. Thud.

 

There was a young girl hanging lifeless out of the back driver’s side door. She was covered in blood.

Each were crumpled up and unconscious. A group of three people ran up to the car to help.

Seeing the devastation to the Horstman family after losing its patriarch, friend Todd Altenburger and eight others saw a need for financial support for families affected by the illness or death of a loved one. And so, the Make It Enough Foundation was born.
