“For those of you who don’t know Collin personally, he is by far the most caring, compassionate, loving individual I’ve ever met in my life,” a description on the GoFundMe page reads. “He will go out of his way to help anyone in need at anytime and he never fails to put a smile on your face. He’s been so extremely strong so far and I know this is an uphill battle that we’re going to win.”
