Support Grace Crawford's Fight Against ALS

Hi everyone,

It’s with heavy hearts that we share some difficult news. Our beloved mom, Grace Fife Crawford, was recently diagnosed with Bulbar-Onset ALS, a rare and aggressive form of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis. As our family begins to navigate this heartbreaking and uncertain journey, we’re reaching out to our community to ask for support—whether it’s through a donation, a share, or simply keeping Grace in your thoughts.

Grace is a fighter. She’s the proud mom of four daughters, a talented artist, and one of the strongest women we know. She has poured her heart into her family and her community for as long as we can remember. For over 20 years, Grace has run her own small business with passion and resilience. During the pandemic, she saw a need in the Charleston area and founded a 501(3)(c) non-profit called One Community Food Bank to help families facing food insecurity. Her commitment to service and love for others is inspiring to everyone she meets.

Now, as she faces the immense challenges of ALS, Grace needs our help.

ALS is a progressive and terminal disease that currently has no cure. Bulbar-onset ALS affects the muscles needed for speech and swallowing first and can progress rapidly. With the advancements of new research and technology, we are doing everything we can to remain hopeful for her. However, the cost of care is overwhelming—between medical equipment such as her Augmentative and Assisted Communication (AAC) device, therapies, out-of-state travel to different clinics, and multiple medications, the financial burden is immense. Our goal is to keep Grace comfortable, supported, and surrounded by love throughout this process.

If you know Grace, you know how deeply she has cared for others. This is our chance to show up for her in return. Every contribution, no matter the amount, makes a real difference in helping us manage the road ahead.

We are incredibly grateful for your love, prayers, and generosity. Thank you for rallying with us. Let’s show Grace that she is not alone in this fight.

With love,

The Crawford Family

Robert, Caroline, John, Margaret Rose, Sara, and Claire
