    I just want to say to all of you thank you for your donations they are greatly appreciated. this has been an uphill battle. Right now before we get a cremated we need to find out the cause of death which is stopping us cuz no doctors want to sign off on the cause of death. so we're looking at possibly needing to get an autopsy done. which is money we do not have. so anything more will really help out. thank you so much again God bless

    As I approach the one year mark of my original diagnosis I want to follow up with another update as I’m sure many of you have been thinking of me and wondering how I’m doing. I want to start by saying, I’m doing really really well. I’ve been hesitant to post an update because for those of you who are familiar with cancer, you know we never get attached to treatment plans and good news is met with waiting for the next pin to drop. On Christmas Eve, I got to share with my family and friends that I’m officially NED. No evidence of metastatic disease means that, based on current tests like PET/CT scans, MRIs, or blood tests, no cancer spread can be detected. While this indicates a positive response to treatment, it does not mean the cancer is completely cured, as microscopic cells may remain. With stage 4 breast cancer, there is currently no cure. However, I have many treatment options that I will hopefully never need but are available to me in the event that the cancer does return or spread. I will continue my two infusions a week for the foreseeable future, my life saving medications daily, weekly acupuncture, and 2x a week HBOT sessions. With the tremendous support from my parents and all of you I’m able to keep up with my treatments. I will never be able to thank you enough for your generosity. I now have to make the very difficult decision of whether or not I will proceed with surgery this summer. The goal since the beginning has been to be treated with curative intent, however surgery comes with a lot of challenges. This is something I will continue to discuss with my team. In the meantime, I ask for continued prayers and encouragement. It helps more than you could ever imagine. Thank you, Kendra

    I'm sooo excited to say that I have paid the program fees in full which is $2,935 and part of the total for the classes which is $403!!! Thank you everyone who's helped. Ive updated the total to be raised as I'm about to purchase the plane tickets but I still have to save a month's worth of bills plus some for train rides, food, momentos, experiences and stays. I leave in a little less than 6 weeks!!! Please continue to share this fundraiser and donate. Thank you again everyone!

Frequently Asked Questions

A Location Community is an evergreen, place-based page on GoFundMe that brings together fundraising activity which originates in a specific city, region, or geography. It's designed to help people discover what members of their community are raising funds for - near or far - and see the collective impact of generosity raised.

Location Communities aggregate fundraisers connected to a specific place. Today, campaigns appear based on the organizer's location. This means you may see:

  • Fundraisers supporting someone in the same city
  • Campaigns benefiting someone in another state or country
  • National or global causes organized by someone locally

This reflects how giving and support actually works — people often care about things that happen everywhere, not only where they live. We are working to make sourcing more transparent so visitors understand why a fundraiser appears on a page.

Fundraisers currently appear based on where the organizer is located. Many people raise funds for loved ones outside their city, or for causes beyond their immediate geography. These are still real expressions of civic participation. To reduce confusion, we are evaluating ways to make this more evident to the users so the supporters of the Community understand how fundraisers are included.

The goal is transparency!

No. Location Communities are designed to reflect community activity — not editorial curation or endorsement by GoFundMe or local governments. These pages are a visibility layer. They show how residents are organizing and supporting one another.

Location Communities are built specifically for giving and impact. They provide:

  • Centralized discovery of local fundraisers
  • Ongoing activity updates
  • Aggregated impact metrics
  • Follow tools and notifications
  • A trusted donation infrastructure

Unlike social platforms, the focus is not conversation or algorithms designed to doomscrool or drive engagement for ad serving purposes. Communities are designed intentionally to direct people to the ongoing needs of their neighbors so that they can offer help or support by liking, sharing, or donating to a fundraiser.

No. These communities should not be used as hardship indexes. They show civic participation — moments of need and moments of generosity. The emphasis is on how residents show up for one another. They are meant to highlight resilience, action, and collective support.

Your fundraiser was added because it's connected to a shared cause or event —like a crisis, challenge, or location. Communities help bring related fundraisers together so supporters can better understand the bigger picture and find ways to help.

Being in a Community can help your fundraiser get more visibility. Supporters browsing the Community can discover your fundraiser alongside others connected to the same cause, see collective progress, and feel more confident donating as part of a trusted, organized effort. As part of helping you share your fundraiser more broadly, we may automatically cross-post certain updates you share that are relevant for the broader community.

No action was required on your part. Fundraisers are added automatically when they're clearly related to a specific cause.

Yes. If you don't want your fundraiser included, you can opt-out via the fundraiser manage page within your dashboard - simply toggle off the prompt for Allow my fundraiser to be found in search and discovery. Your fundraiser will still remain active and accessible on its own page.

Not at all. Your fundraiser stays fully yours—same goal, same donations, same updates. The Community is simply an additional way for supporters to discover and engage with your fundraiser.
