Hi everyone, we are collecting funds for a valued member of our team, Kris Graellos, and a dear friend to many of us in Manila. Kris is someone who shows up every day with dedication, kindness, and strength — and now she needs our support. Kris has been diagnosed with Stage 2 breast cancer. While she is facing this challenge with courage, the road ahead includes surgeries, treatments, medications, and recovery time. Unfortunately, not all these medical expenses are fully covered by insurance, and the financial burden can quickly become overwhelming. Our goal with this fundraiser is simple: to help ease the financial stress so Kris can focus on what matters most — her health, healing, and recovery. No one should have to worry about bills while fighting cancer.

Important note on fund transfers: GoFundMe does not currently support direct transfers to bank accounts in the Philippines. For that reason, funds raised through this campaign will be deposited into my bank account and promptly and fully transferred to Kris to support her medical and related expenses. Transparency and accountability are very important to us.

Every contribution — no matter the size — makes a difference. If you’re unable to donate, sharing this page and keeping Kris in your thoughts means just as much. Thank you for supporting Kris with love, generosity, and strength during this difficult time. We love you, Kris!
