ST. LOUIS (KMOV) – The St. Louligans recently took to Facebook to ask for community support for a man who was diagnosed with brain cancer.

Dave, a big soccer fan, wanted to go to this Saturday’s St. Louis CITY SC game with his wife and four children. Following the social media post, community members came together to donate six tickets to the family in the fan section.

3 Little Birds 4 Life has been working with Dave’s family and partnered with the St. Louligans to make this experience happen for Dave’s family. The nonprofit organization is providing money for them to buy food at the game and shirts to wear.

“Most of us are parents and you just think, I can’t even imagine what that family is going through,” said St. Louligan Brad Demunbrun. So if they can have one day where they just get to be normal, get to have fun, forget about their problems. that’s what we all do when we go to sports. We all forget about our problems. their problems just happen to be really huge.”

Saturday’s game against Minnesota will start at 7:30 p.m.
