McDermott Love and Support

Donation protected
Hello Friends,

FIRST - this is confidential - please do not share with the McDermott Family.

Our dear friend Catherine McDermott is going headfirst into battle with breast cancer in the coming weeks. The prognosis for beating this thing is positive - that combined with the McDermott/Johnson fortitude will help her to get through this with success.

Catherine is always the first person to step up and support her family, friends, and community and we are honored to be able to step in and provide her and the McDermott family all of the support and assistance that we can.

The McDs will be shouldering significant out-of-pocket expenses throughout this journey - from high insurance deductibles to the costs associated with almost daily travel between Anchorage and Girdwood and beyond. Can they shoulder it? Of course. Can we help them out along the way? Absolutely - and our assistance will allow them to focus on raising their family, healing, and moving forward instead of dealing with unnecessary financial stress.

Please consider helping however you can - while we've set a modest goal, I know that this group will go well beyond it.

Again - we are asking that you do not share this effort with the McDermotts. We are aiming to not make a big deal about this, rather quietly provide the support that will help our friends and neighbors through this challenge.

Outside of your financial contribution - as Catherine progresses through her treatment, there will be a number of options to help with meals, cards, notes, calls, walks, and all other kinds of support we can dream up. We're all on team McD and they won't go through this alone.

Thank you for chipping in - anything you can do will have a tremendous impact.
