We are reaching out on behalf of our dear friend and colleague, Jennifer Longoria, who has shown incredible strength and resilience as her family faces one of life’s most difficult journeys — her son’s ongoing medical battle at MD Anderson Cancer Center.

For those of us lucky enough to work alongside Jennifer, we know her as more than just a coworker. She’s the kind of person who always shows up — with compassion, with a tireless work ethic, and with an unwavering smile, even on the toughest days. What many may not fully know is that behind that smile is a mother who has been courageously fighting for her son’s health for over five years.

Jennifer's son was first diagnosed five years ago. Since then, their lives have been filled with hospital stays, treatment plans, countless doctor visits, and unimaginable emotional and physical challenges. Through it all, Jennifer has remained a pillar of grace and grit — balancing her work, her role as a mother, and her family's needs with strength that continues to inspire all of us.

Now, her son's condition is facing new challenges, and urgent medical needs. He will be undergoing his 3rd surgery and Jennifer has had to step away from work to be by his side during this critical time. The financial burden — from medical bills to travel and everyday living expenses — is growing rapidly, and we want to support her the way she has always supported others.

We are raising funds to help relieve the mounting stress on Jennifer and her family, so they can focus fully on what matters most: their son’s care and well-being. Every donation will go toward:

Medical expenses and specialized treatments

Transportation and lodging for out-of-town medical visits

Household and living costs while Jennifer is away from work

Support for her son’s ongoing recovery journey

Jennifer has never asked for anything and has been very private about her struggles — but we know now is the time to lift her up. If you’re able to give, no matter the amount, it will go directly to helping this incredible family. And if you’re unable to give, please consider sharing this campaign with your network.

Let’s show Jennifer the same loyalty, love, and strength she’s given to all of us. Thank you for helping us support her during this incredibly difficult chapter.

With gratitude,

On behalf of Jennifer Longoria’s family
