Julie Thompson is one of those people who shows up—without hesitation, without question, and always with love. She is a loyal friend (and Swiftie ), a steady presence, and someone who has spent her life taking care of others. Today, she needs us to show up for her.

Julie was recently diagnosed with invasive ductal carcinoma, triple negative—a rare and aggressive form of breast cancer. The news came suddenly, turning her world upside down in a matter of days.

She is now preparing to begin chemotherapy, followed by a double mastectomy later this year. The road ahead will be physically and emotionally demanding, filled with uncertainty, strength, and resilience. Through it all, Julie remains incredibly brave and badass, but no one should have to face something like this alone.

As Julie focuses on fighting this battle, the financial burden of treatment, medical bills, time away from work, and everyday expenses will continue to grow. This fundraiser is an opportunity for all of us to ease that burden so she can focus on what matters most—healing and recovery.

If you know Julie, you know her kindness is unmatched. Let’s come together to lift Julie up, surround her with love, and remind her that she is not fighting this alone.

Thank you for your generosity, your good vibes, and your support.
