Lift Up Lukas: Kidney Failure Can't Stop Him

Hi everyone,

I’m starting this fundraiser on behalf of my friend Lukas, who is not only an incredible person but a true builder — of businesses, of dreams, and of community.

Lukas was first diagnosed with kidney disease at 17, but things have gotten far more serious in the past couple of years. He’s now in Stage 4 kidney failure, and doctors say he’ll need a transplant within the next year. Dialysis is looming if a donor isn’t found soon.

For someone who has always worked hard and never asked for handouts, this moment is incredibly tough. Lukas had to pause the businesses he built from the ground up — Street Styles Academy and Astroblade, both focused on empowering others — because of the toll his health has taken. He’s passionate about helping kids chase their dreams, and he’s always been the kind of person who lifts others up.

Now it’s our turn to lift him.

This fundraiser will help Lukas cover:

Medical bills

Living expenses

Time to heal and rebuild while waiting for a transplant

He’s not asking for charity — he’s asking for a chance to catch his breath, get the treatment he needs, and return to doing what he loves: building opportunities for others.

If you’ve ever believed in second chances, in the power of community, or in the goodness of helping someone who never stops helping others — this is your moment.

Every donation, every share, every kind word makes a difference.

Let’s get Lukas through this — and back to doing the amazing things he’s meant to do. And enjoy life to its fullest with his service dog Shay!
