I have known the Giglia family for over ten years now- Sarah has become one of my best friends and I have come to love and adore their girls. When I think of Mia, I think back to the cutest little baby shower we had to welcome her into the world. I think about her first birthday with a homemade butterfly cake and trips to the pumpkin patch. I wish I could give this family the world and more. Thank you for your time checking out this page, donating, or simply sharing! We appreciate it!  

From Mia's Mom and Dad:

Mia is 9 years old, and she is one of the strongest, most resilient kids you will ever meet. Since she was just two years old, Mia has been battling Neurofibromatosis Type 1 (NF-1), a condition that has brought countless doctor visits, tests, and challenges in her young life. Recently, our family received difficult news — Mia has developed two brain tumors and will need to begin chemotherapy this summer, once the school year ends. The road ahead will not be easy and the next two years will be filled with treatments, hospital visits, and moments that no child should have to face. But if there’s one thing we know about Mia, it’s that she is a fighter. Through everything she has been through, she continues to smile, stay brave, and push forward with a strength beyond her years. She inspires us every single day.

We are asking for support to help ease the financial burden of upcoming medical costs and to give Mia something special to look forward to — a trip dedicated just to her. We want to create joyful memories for her during this difficult time, something that brings her happiness, excitement, and a break from everything she’s been facing.

Any donation, no matter the amount, will go directly toward:

• Medical expenses related to her treatment

• Travel and care needs during chemotherapy

• A special trip for Mia to lift her spirits before she starts treatment.

If you’re unable to donate, sharing this page means just as much to us.

Thank you for supporting Mia, for keeping her in your thoughts and prayers, and for helping us remind her that she is never fighting alone.

With gratitude,

Mia’s family
