Griffin Kidd

Donation protected
The beginning of 2019 has marked a tremendous shift in focus for the Kidd Family (Griffin and Carrie, Ivy (11), Dahlia (9), and Aurora (4)). After several weeks of waiting, Griffin was officially diagnosed with glioblastoma, the most aggressive form of brain cancer. As a result, he faces the most aggressive treatment in the coming weeks and months, and the uncertainty of it all is overwhelming, to say the least.

As loving friends, family, coworkers, and beyond, we all wish for them the best possible outcomes, and it is hard to know how to help in these situations. My hope is that our financial support, however small, can help minimize the financial strain that treatment and copays, potential travel and lodgings during treatment, additional childcare during medical appointments, lost wages from Griffin’s evening and summer teaching positions, therapeutic support, household management, etc. has on Griffin and Carrie.  They can better use this mental and emotional energy to focus on healing, wellness and spending quality time together as a family. 

Griffin and Carrie have been amazed and humbled by the outpouring of love and support they've received over the last few weeks. However, as a family accustomed to doing for others, it is sometimes difficult to now be on the receiving end.  After much encouragement from many directions, they have agreed to allow me to create this page. Please give and share as you see fit. As one of the most frugal families I know, they will manage this financial support with the utmost care and focused intention. They will be able to use the fund to lighten their load during the most challenging time of their lives.
