Rally for Rylie: Support Rylie's Fight Against Colon Cancer

Donation protected
Rylie was diagnosed with stage 4 colon cancer at just 27 years old — words we never imagined having to write. Just a few short weeks ago, she was in the middle of training for a marathon and planning the final details of her wedding and honeymoon in Hawaii. Instead of walking down the aisle, she was facing surgery, fertility treatments, and the start of a fight none of us saw coming. She has shifted every plan to focus on healing, and she shouldn’t have to carry this alone.

If you’ve ever met Rylie, you know she’s a literal ray of sunshine. She’s the kind of person who makes everyone feel like family — always quick to laugh, always there when you need her, and never without a smile. She’s vibrant, authentic, and loves with her whole heart.

Since her diagnosis, she has undergone a major surgery and bravely completed fertility preservation to protect her future possibilities. On June 4, she’ll begin six months of chemotherapy, requiring biweekly travel to and from the cancer center in a different state — a significant emotional and financial undertaking.

We’re raising funds to help ease the burden of this journey, so Rylie can focus on healing with the same courage and grace she brings to everything in life. Your donations will support:

  • Her ongoing cancer treatments and medical care not covered by insurance
  • Fertility treatments and long-term egg storage
  • Biweekly travel and lodging costs for treatment in New Jersey
  • Time off work for her partner so he can be fully present to support her care and recovery

Our goal is $20,000, but truly, every contribution — no matter the size — will make a difference in helping Rylie through this fight. If you're unable to give financially, please consider sharing this page with your community.

Rylie has always been the first to show up for others with love, laughter, and loyalty. Now it’s our turn to show up for her.
