Stand by Kelly: Facing Cancer Together
Donation protected
Hello, everyone.
We are reaching out to ask for your help on behalf of our friend, Kelly Pellegrino, who is facing breast cancer. Kelly underwent surgery a few weeks ago and now faces radiation treatment and follow-up appointments in the coming months. While her insurance covers most of her medical care, there are many additional costs she’s struggling to manage.
This is Kelly’s third major surgery in just three years, and these past few years have drained much of her family’s savings. The costs associated with her treatments are adding up quickly—from ferry trips to Seattle for appointments, to prescription medications, parking fees, and other medical-related expenses.
How the Funds Will Be Used
The money raised will help cover:
- Ferry trips, hotel stays, and transportation costs for medical visits
- Follow-up MRIs, doctor visits, and treatments
- Radiation treatments, prescription medications and medical expenses
Any support you can offer—whether it’s a donation or simply sharing this campaign on social media—will make a huge difference in easing the financial burden she’s facing.
Thank you so much for your kindness and generosity. It means the world to Kelly and her family.
