Support Kelly’s Fight Against Breast Cancer
If you know Kelly Barnes, you know her as a beacon of positivity and love. She is also one of the first people to show up when things get tough. She has been an unwavering source of strength and inspiration for so many of us, standing by our sides through our dark days with her trademark kindness and humor: Making us food (her love language) and making us laugh.

Now, Kelly is facing her own mountain, and it’s our turn to carry her.

The Journey Ahead
Recently, Kelly received the news that no one is ever prepared for: she has been diagnosed with breast cancer. We currently know that the cancer has reached the lymph nodes on one side and there is a tumor on the other.

Because of the aggressive nature of this fight, Kelly’s path to recovery will include:

Surgery: She will definitely require a mastectomy, with the possibility of a double mastectomy.
Extensive Treatment: A rigorous schedule of treatments to ensure the cancer is fully addressed.
Recovery Time: Significant time away from work to focus on healing and physical therapy.
Why We Are Raising Funds
While Kelly is a fighter, the financial burden of cancer is a weight no one should have to carry alone. We are raising money to help cover:

Medical Costs: Out-of-pocket expenses and specialized treatments not covered by insurance, and the cost of what’ insurance does not cover for conventional treatments.
Cost of Living: Ensuring Kelly can pay her rent and bills while she is unable to work during her surgery and recovery.
How You Can Help
Kelly has spent her life being an inspiration to others. Let’s show her that she doesn't have to “be strong" by herself through this time.

Donate: Any amount, no matter how small, goes directly toward Kelly's medical and living expenses.
Share: Even if you cannot donate, please share this link with your network to help us spread the word.
Pray & Send all the Love and Light: Your words of encouragement mean the world to her.
Kelly has always been there for us. Let’s make sure she knows we are right there behind her for every step of this journey.

Thank you for your generosity, your prayers, and your love and light.
