      PTSD Program donations

      My name is Matt Fort and I have dealt with PTSD, anxiety, alcoholism and depression for a lot of my life. Saltwater aquariums have played a huge part in my recovery and I don’t know what I would do without them. On Oct 17th 2015 I was revived in the ER and given a second chance on life. I was recommended by a therapist to find a hobby that takes up time and has a routine to it so I decided on a saltwater aquarium. I have spent the last 5 years sober and I owe a lot of it to my aquarium.

      I am starting a program for military vets dealing with PTSD. I will be setting up their tank along side them and inform them on the husbandry for the tank along with my routine that helps me deal with my disorders. I am looking for donations of products to help with getting this program off the ground. Anything helps! It doesn’t matter what it is or how old or what condition. I will be posting on here so everyone can follow the builds and give recommendations. Like I said, anything helps. Thanks for your time!

      I am in the process of setting up a 501c but I already have donations from companies like JBJ, Waterbox and Cobalt to name a few. This is going to be a really cool thing for some deserving people who gave so much for us!

      Ok guys and gals! I’m getting tons of support for this so if everyone could do me a favor and just text me what you are interested in donating and your screen name (so I can make sure people know who donated what to them. Hopefully it will create a better community for them) that way I can schedule pickups this weekend 858-431-9210
