Support Alyssa's Fight Against Ovarian Cancer
Donation protected
Most people who have met Kristen know she goes out of her way to help others. She is now in need of our help and support. At just 21 years old, Kristen's daughter Alyssa has been diagnosed with a rare and aggressive form of ovarian cancer. This is every parent’s worst nightmare, and it has turned Alyssa’s world and her mom, Kristen’s world, upside down. Alyssa is a dedicated college soccer player who had just transferred to Elmhurst University, but she has had to pause both her soccer career and her studies to focus on her treatment.
Alyssa and her younger sister live with Kristen, who is a single mother who works as a hair stylist and runs a daycare to support them.
With Kristen needing to take time off to care for Alyssa, they will be facing a severe financial hardship. The pressure of lost income and huge medical bills is becoming overwhelming for them. We’re asking for your help to ease this burden. Every bit of love and support will be so helpful to the family.
Kristen nor Alyssa want to reach out for help, but we asked permission to post on their behalf because we can’t imagine the strain they will be under. Your donations will go directly towards covering Alyssa’s medical expenses and supporting her family during this difficult time. Thanks for all the love and support for Kristen and her family.
