Help the Frigillanas Fight Cancer

Chris is one of the most selfless human beings I know. He is a hard worker and he never fails to show everyone around him his capacity to love.


During the Summer of 2018, Chris became sick. What seemed like a normal cold didn’t go away. Despite this, he continued to work two jobs-- working doubles, working 5am shifts, sometimes even sleeping in his car.


He is a 24 year old chasing his dreams to become a Makeup Artist and a Beauty Influencer. Growing up, he struggled with his identity and he hopes to inspire others going through similar situations that beauty exists beyond social and cultural barriers.


On January 2019, he was diagnosed with Hodgkins Lymphoma Stage 2. Hodgkins Lymphoma is a Cancer of the Lymphatic System which is part of the Immune System. He has been in and out of the hospital for various tests including PET scan, CAT scan, Bone Marrow test, Biopsies, and other procedures necessary for Cancer treatment.


In the midst of Chris battling his cancer, his Dad was rushed to the hospital after the Doctors found out that he has Coronary Artery Disease when he had an Angiogram done the same day. At first, Chris’ Dad was hesitant on getting Quadruple Bypass Heart Surgery because he wanted to focus on his son’s health. But no one’s life should be compensated for another.


Due to the strain from open heart surgery, Chris’ Dad is not able to work to support his family. His mom has no choice but to go on family leave to look after both Chris and her husband.


No words can ever express the daunting stress the Frigillana family is going through, but they are staying optimistic and hopeful. They are so blessed to have such supporting family and friends who have reached out.  


This campaign is for Chris’ cancer treatments including Chemotherapy and for his Dad’s Coronary Rehabilitation Program. We are asking for your help so the Frigillana family can sustain basic needs such as rent/utilities, groceries, gas, and other necessities on top of Medical bills for both Chris and his Dad.


We are so thankful for every prayer, every dollar, every smile and kind gesture.


Help Chris Fight Cancer. Help his Dad go to rehab. Let’s show them that everyday is a beautiful day to be alive.
