A community fundraiser is underway to support the Gale family after a devastating accident occurred on May 14, 2026. The incident took place at the intersection of Pony Express Parkway and Mountain View Corridor in Saratoga Springs.
A semitruck collided with the family's minivan, an event that resulted in the death of 13-year-old Parker Gale and left several other family members seriously injured.
Roxana Jorgensen is organizing the fundraiser on behalf of Sam Gale to help manage the financial burdens following the tragedy. According to the campaign, the funds are intended to cover Parker's funeral, medical bills, and lost income.
Several family members remain hospitalized and face a long recovery process. The fund seeks to assist with the many day-to-day burdens associated with the accident.
As of the recent update, the campaign has raised $100,000 toward its $110,000 goal. Organizers are asking community members and neighbors to donate or share the fundraiser to help the family focus on healing.
