Dear friends, family, and kindhearted strangers,

Life has a way of throwing challenges at the strongest among us, and today, one of the most incredible women we know needs our help. Marlene Howe - an amazing wife to Doug, a loving mother of five, and a friend to so many - has been diagnosed with stage 4 terminal cancer that is very aggressive and spreading. 

If you know Marlene, you know she is the heart of her family. She has always been the first to lend a hand, the one to cheer the loudest for her kids, and who would do anything to help someone one need. Now it’s our turn to be there for her.

Cancer is a battle no one fights alone. As Marlene undergoes treatment, the emotional and financial toll is overwhelming. Medical bills, travel expenses for treatment, and daily living costs are piling up, creating stress at a time when she needs to focus on healing. We are reaching out to our community, near and far, to ask for support. Every donation, no matter how small, will make a difference. Whether it’s helping cover medical costs, ensuring her children have what they need, or simply giving Marlene and Doug some peace of mind, your generosity will mean the world to them.

If you are unable to donate, we ask that you share this fundraiser and send your love, prayers, and positive energy their way. Marlene is a fighter, and with a strong support system behind her, she has an even greater chance of winning this battle.

Let’s come together to show Marlene and her family that they are not alone. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your kindness, support and love.
