Hey there!

This go fund me project exists to raise money for our dear friend and beloved community member, Kitty Mayo.

Here on the North Shore in Lake County, most everyone knows Kitty. Kitty is editor of the Lake County Press and a champion for every worthy effort to build and sustain the local community.

Earlier this year, Kitty was diagnosed with lymphoma in her eyes that has now spread to her brain. She has been receiving her critical medical care at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN, a four hour drive from home. The chemo treatments she receives require inpatient hospitalization for several days at a time. As primary care provider for her husband, Bill, this has all been a devastating situation, with little relief in sight.

We hope to raise $10,000 to pay her medical deductible in January and additional funds to cover the cost of gas and hotel stays along the way.

Thank you for your consideration in helping Kitty. Your support will strengthen her resolve and help ease her journey.

An in-person benefit event will be held at Harbor Theater in Two Harbors, MN on Saturday, November 7, 4-7 pm.
