Care for Kinney
Donation protected
There are times in life when we all need some extra help. This is one of the times for my friend, Kinney.
The Backstory
Kinney has been one of my very best friends for 26 years. I can tell you that she's compassionate, kind, selfless and works hard to raise her five beautiful children. She has been a huge advocate in the Down syndrome community in honor of her son Luke. Life as a single Mom has not been easy for her as she has struggled to find a career that enabled her to care for Luke and all of his medical needs while trying to keep the bills paid.
Kinney has the BRCA1 gene mutation which increases her chances of getting breast and ovarian cancer. In fact, on her Dad's side, all but one of her female relatives passed away in their 40's and early 50's from breast and ovarian cancer.
She just had surgery to remove a mass from her Fallopian tubes and is not able to work at her regular job or make her rent. She anticipates returning to her job as an Uber driver in about a month.
How you can help
It's my goal to raise $5,000 for Kinney so that she and her family can have the security of having their rent and bills paid for the month until she can get back to work. Please imagine what would be helpful for you or your family if you were in her situation and donate what you can. All donations are greatly appreciated!
