Welcome to the Love For Los Foundation

Faith, Love, and Support for the Bentley Family & Beyond

This website was created out of deep love for the Bentley family — a God-Loving, servant-hearted family known for their unwavering generosity and faith. As Charlos faces a challenging road of recovery from a terrible tragedy, this space serves as a hub for updates, prayer, community support, and giving.

While our immediate focus is on supporting Charlos through his fight — including ongoing medical needs, rehabilitation, and financial challenges — the heart behind this foundation reaches further. It was established not only to walk alongside the Bentleys, but also to serve other families facing similar crises, offering prayerful encouragement, resources, and hope rooted in God’s faithfulness.

Please explore for the latest updates on Charlos’ condition, specific prayer requests, upcoming community events, and how you can support or stay involved.

Together, we stand in faith, believing in healing, provision, and God’s perfect plan — for Charlos, and his family, and for all those this foundation will one day bless.

Charlos’ Story

On the night of May 24th, 2025 at approximately 10:00 PM, Charlos “Los” Bentley was loading up his family’s vehicle for a planned beach day at San Onofre the next morning when tragedy struck. A sedan sideswiped the vehicle, hitting Charlos and fleeing the scene. He was left alone on the pavement until his wife, Brooke, heard the crash and rushed to find him, immediately calling 911. (The driver was later apprehended and released on bail.)

Charlos spent 38 days in the Surgical ICU at a Mission hospital, fighting to recover. He had suffered multiple serious injuries, including brain bleeds, broken bones, and fluid in his lungs. The most urgent prayer requests right now are for brain healing and rest, as dedicated doctors and nurses care for him through a coma, mechanical ventilation, and a long list of complications. He has since been moved to a LTACH (Long Term Acute Care Facility) to continue his healing. He remains in a coma but is healing better with each passing day. (Stay UpToDate on Los’s Journey Here…)

Charlos is the sole provider for his family, and the road ahead will be long and arduous.
