Our dear friend Lori has spent her entire life lifting others up. If you know her, you know her kindness is limitless: the meals she’s delivered without being asked, the rides she’s offered at a moment’s notice, the way she shows up for people with a full heart and a bright smile. She’s a true light in this world — generous, joyful, and always ready to serve.

Earlier this month, everything changed. A sudden and severe infection led to the unimaginable: the amputation of her lower leg. As she begins the long journey of recovery, rehabilitation, and learning to navigate life in a new way, she’s facing significant financial pressure. She will be unable to work for some time and needs support for living expenses, medical costs not covered by insurance, and the extensive rehabilitation ahead.

Lori has poured so much love into her community — and now, it’s our turn to show up for her. Any contribution, big or small, will help ease the burden and give her the stability she needs to focus on healing.

Thank you for helping us surround her with strength, care, and hope during this incredibly difficult chapter.
