Fight with Chris Laursen!

Donation protected
If there can be any silver lining to cancer, it’s this: when it affects someone you love, it becomes crystal clear just how much they matter.

This is Chris Laursen (a.k.a. Too Tall). Loving son, brother, uncle, tremendous friend and all-around amazing human being! If you know Chris, you know the amount of heart, compassion and humor he possesses – and how much of a light he is for all of his family and friends.

In March of 2018 Chris was diagnosed with an aggressive form of soft tissue Sarcoma and he’s now courageously facing the battle of a lifetime with everything he’s got. The news was a major blow for everyone but was met immediately with a tsunami of love, support, heaps of hope and a solid treatment plan.

In spite of all this, there is still a long road ahead. Besides the physical and emotional toll, fighting cancer can be an enormous financial burden. Many have asked how they can support Chris, so we put together this Go Fund Me page as a way to make it easy to do just that!

If you are able, please consider making a donation to help lighten the financial load and cover any extra expenses the months ahead may bring. 100% of your generous contributions will go directly to assisting Chris and his family with:

-  Transportation to and from Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center.

-  Medical expenses not covered by health insurance.

-  Living expense relief.

Every little bit helps and if you don’t have the capacity to donate right now, please consider sharing his story with others. With all of our support, we hope to allow Chris to only focus on one thing and that's his road to recovery!
