I am creating this fundraiser for my dear friend, Kari McCuistion, who I’ve been blessed to call a friend since 3rd grade. Kari is truly one of the best people I know—an incredible wife, a devoted mother, a loving sister and daughter, and a loyal friend to so many.

This Wednesday, Kari will be undergoing multiple surgeries. While she faces this difficult challenge with her usual strength and grace, the reality is that it will put a significant financial strain on her and her family. Between medical expenses, time away from work, and the extra care she will need, the burden is heavy.

Anyone who knows Kari knows her heart—she is always the first to help, encourage, and love others without hesitation. Now it’s our turn to show up for her.

If you are able, please consider donating to help ease the financial stress so Kari and her family can focus on what truly matters: her healing and recovery. Any amount, big or small, will make a difference. And if you cannot give, sharing this fundraiser and keeping Kari in your prayers means the world.

Thank you for your love, generosity, and support for Kari during this time.
