We are raising funds for our dear friend Maggie, who has been a constant source of kindness, strength, and generosity from the moment we met. Maggie consistently shows up for others. She helps her friends without hesitation and never asks for anything in return. She is the kind of person who gives quietly, loves deeply, and faces life with optimism and humor — even now.

Maggie is a devoted mother of six who has recently been diagnosed with HER2-positive breast cancer. She is preparing to begin chemotherapy on February 13, with at least six months of treatment planned before surgery. Cancer has been found in her lymph nodes, and her medical team is continuing imaging and testing as treatment begins.

While focusing on her health and caring for her six children, Maggie is facing overwhelming medical expenses. Even with health insurance, out-of-pocket costs for biopsies, imaging, oncology visits, medications, and ongoing treatment are adding up quickly.

Funds raised will help cover chemotherapy and cancer treatments, imaging, lab work, and medical bills not fully covered by insurance, medications and supportive care, transportation to frequent appointments, and childcare and essential household expenses during treatment. Your support helps ensure Maggie’s care is guided by medical need — not financial barriers.

This fundraiser is organized by Maggie’s close friends, Katya and Ashley, with her permission, so Maggie can focus on healing and being there for her children. Any amount — or even sharing this page — makes a meaningful difference. Thank you for supporting Maggie and her family during this incredibly difficult time.
