Hi everyone,

I'm reaching out on behalf of my dear friends, Stephanie and ken Stanley, and their six children. The Stanley's have been facing an incredibly difficult journey as their oldest son, Kenneth, battles Renal Cell Carcinoma. As you can imagine, this diagnosis has turned their world upside down.

Kenneth's treatments have included a month-long stay at Johns Hopkins for radiation, chemotherapy, surgeries, and extended hospital stays due to complications from his cancer treatments. They've also traveled to multiple specialized medical facilities to seek the best care for his complex and advanced diagnosis. During this time, Stephanie has had to take a leave of absence from work, and Ken, being self-employed, has had to miss work to be with Kenneth. Despise all of this, they're doing everything they can to hold things together.

If you know them, you know they're the kind of people who don't ask for help and are always willing to lend a hand to others. Many have reached out asking how they can support. After speaking with Stephanie, we believe this is the best way to channel any assistance they might need.

Our hope is to come together and help ease the financial burden on the Stanleys so they can focus fully on supporting Kenneth during this fight. Their priority is giving Kenneth the best chance possible, without the added stress of unpaid leave, mounting medical bills, or financial worries.

Whatever you could donate would make a significant difference. If you're unable to contribute financially at this time, please consider sharing this fundraiser with those around you. Every bit of support helps lift some of the weight off their shoulders.

Ken and Stephanie deeply appreciate all the love, prayers, and support they've received during this incredibly challenging time.

Thank you so much,

Licia Hartsock
