Support for Amanda's Breast Cancer Journey

I met my sweet friend Amanda about 25 years ago when I was in Bible college. I'm grateful to have had her friendship through all of our life changes!

She’s an amazing mom of 7 and a proud grandma of 2. She was diagnosed with Stage 3 breast cancer in December 2024. Despite being physically exhausted, she's continued to work through treatment, however this summer Amanda will be having surgery and will need to be out of work for at least two months.

Her job is physically demanding, and unfortunately, being self-employed, she doesn’t have access to disability or unemployment benefits. Work has already been slower than normal, and as a single mom with three kids still at home, she’s feeling the weight of what taking that time off will mean.

Amanda is one of the strongest women I know, but she shouldn’t have to go through this alone. I'm asking everyone to come together to help ease the stress so she can focus on healing.

Donations will go toward basic living expenses—rent, groceries, and keeping the lights on—while she recovers. If you're able to give, know that every contribution, no matter the size, will make a meaningful difference. If you can't give financially, your prayers and shares are appreciated!
