Hi, my name is Arika, and I'm fundraising for my beautiful friend Tara. Six months ago, Tara was diagnosed with bowel cancer.

Unable to work, she has been using her savings to cover medical treatments, pay rent, feed her kids and manage daily expenses.

Tara doesn't have friends or family living close by to help her, and doing it all alone is taking it's toll.

This fundraiser is to help ease her financial burden so she can focus on her healing and being there for her kids.

Every contribution, big or small, will make a huge difference in Tara's journey.

Thank you for your kindness and support.
