Aid Iris's Healing from Rare Cancer

Donation protected
If you’ve had the privilege of knowing Iris Welcome, you know that she is a beacon of strength, kindness, and resilience. She has given so much of herself to her community, and now it’s our turn to show up for her.

Earlier this year, Iris was diagnosed with Triple Negative Breast Cancer, a rare and aggressive form of cancer that requires an intense and grueling treatment plan. While she is facing this challenge with incredible courage and gratitude, the journey ahead comes with significant financial burdens—many of which are not fully covered by insurance.

This fundraiser will help ease the weight of medical and wellness expenses, including supportive treatments, mental health resources, wigs, and other essentials that will aid in her healing.

Iris has always been fiercely independent and humble, rarely asking for help. But we know that healing is not just physical—it is also emotional, spiritual, and communal. Whether you can donate, share, or simply send love and encouragement, every bit of support makes a difference.

Let’s rally around Iris the way she has shown up for so many. Let’s remind her that she is not alone in this—she is surrounded by love, faith, and an unbreakable community.

Please share and amplify this fundraiser however you can. Together, we can help Iris not just survive, but thrive through this journey.
