Support Wendy Cochran's Fight Against Ovarian Cancer

Hi I’m Melisa Berardi and I’m raising funds for my forever friend Wendy Cochran. Help Support Wendy Through Her Fight with Ovarian Cancer

Friends, I’m reaching out with a heavy heart and a hopeful spirit to ask for your support for someone incredibly dear to me—Wendy Litzinger Cochran.

If you know Wendy, you know her light. She’s been a loving friend, a small business owner, and a talented hairstylist who's made countless people feel beautiful inside and out. She's the kind of person who shows up—with a smile, with grace, and with open arms. Now, it’s our turn to show up for her.

Wendy has recently been diagnosed with ovarian cancer. She’s already undergone surgery and is now preparing for the difficult journey of chemotherapy. As you can imagine, this has completely upended her ability to work and keep her business going.

Wendy and her business have been an integral part of the borough of Hollidaysburg for as long as I can remember. She’s been a constant presence—supporting her clients, uplifting neighbors, and stepping in to help others whenever and however she could. Her generosity and warmth have touched so many lives in this community.

Now, we have a chance to give back.

We're raising $15,000 to help Wendy cover:

Living expenses while she's unable to work

Ongoing medical bills and treatments

Travel costs for treatment

Expenses related to keeping her small business afloat during this time

No one fights alone—and Wendy shouldn't have to worry about money while she's fighting for her health.

If you’re able, please consider donating. Every dollar, every share, every prayer matters more than you know. Let’s lift Wendy up with the same love and care she’s always given to others.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for being part of Wendy’s village.
