“Imagine being a match for a life-saving surgery… and the only thing standing in the way is money.”

Lauren is a strong, beautiful mother of 3 who has been bravely battling sickle cell disease. Now, she faces her biggest fight yet — a bone marrow transplant that will give her a healthier, brighter future. She has a 100% match from her sister Kesha but the procedure can't be scheduled until she has a 24- hour caregiver and her housing covered.

The transplant process will be long and challenging, including chemo, months of isolation and recovery, but Lauren’s determination and courage inspire everyone who knows her. Unfortunately, the cost of this procedure, along with the medical bills, travel expenses, and specialized care she’ll need during recovery, is overwhelming for her and her family.

We are reaching out to our community, friends, and kind strangers to ask for your support. Every donation — no matter the size — will help cover her treatment and give Lauren the best chance to heal.

If you are unable to give, please consider sharing this page so we can reach more hearts willing to help. Together, we can give Lauren the gift of hope and a future free from the pain of sickle cell.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for standing with Lauren in this fight.
