Support Sarah's Fight Against Cancer and Dream of Teaching

Donation protected



Hi, I’m Sarah, an artist, volunteer, and soon-to-be full-time student with big dreams of making a difference. Recently, I received life-changing news: my doctor is 80% certain I have renal cell carcinoma. While this diagnosis is challenging, I’m determined to move forward with hope and purpose.

The Plan:
After exploring my options, I chose surgery to remove the cysts entirely. It’s a proactive step to ensure my best chance of recovery, and the procedure is scheduled for July. I’m hopeful this won’t disrupt my studies as I begin pursuing a degree in June—a stepping stone toward my dream of teaching art to children and starting innovative programs, like a film class for deaf kids.

Why I Need Your Help:
Balancing my health, education, and financial needs is overwhelming. Because of my health, I’m unable to work while attending school full-time. Though I’m applying for scholarships and grants to cover living expenses, most won’t provide funds until later in the year. That’s why I’m reaching out for support.

Your contributions will help cover:

  • Medical expenses and recovery care
  • Living costs during school and recovery
  • Resources to stay focused on my studies and healing

I’m grateful for any support you can offer, whether it’s a donation, sharing my story, or sending good vibes. I’m determined to overcome this and continue working toward my dream of empowering children through art. Together, we can make this a little lighter.

And one last thing: F*** cancer!
