Greetings, my name is Vonda, and I'm raising money for my cousin DeAndre "DeDe" Hawkins, who received a colon cancer diagnosis on August 24, 2023.

DeDe is the most remarkable, devoted, supportive and encouraging person I know. He is this person to many of you as well as to me, and I am confident that with our love and support, he will fight this illness successfully.

We are presently awaiting information from his physicians on which treatments and/or operations he will require or what stage his prognosis is as this dreadful news has just hit us. However, we pray that he will be financially ready so that his treatment won't be delayed.

I'm hoping we can collect enough money in donations to help pay for any medical care the physicians decide to prescribe. And we would welcome a donation of any size.

As soon as there are any updates on his condition or treatment plan, I'll be sure to let you all know. I appreciate your love and support in advance. DeDe will be able to fight this cancer and WIN with your assistance, I'm confident about that. Please keep him in your prayers.

Sincerely,

Vonda
