<div>Not long after her 50th birthday, Stephanie found a lump. After scans and tests, she received the diagnosis: aggressive stage three breast cancer.


</div>


<div>She is now nearing the end of the chemotherapy portion of this journey. The good news is that both the clinical trial chemotherapy and the standard-of-care treatment have successfully shrunk the tumor — which will help ensure that the next step, a surgical mastectomy, goes as smoothly as possible.


</div>


<div>The difficult news is that the lymphovenous bypass procedure — which transplants healthy lymph nodes to the affected area — is not covered by insurance.


</div>


<div>In addition, Stephanie has already had to reduce her work hours during treatment. Surgery, followed by a month of radiation therapy and later reconstruction surgery, will make working even more challenging in the months ahead.


</div>


<div>Stephanie is an esthetician and her work requires consistent use of her arms — something that simply won’t be feasible during parts of her treatment and recovery. On top of that, the fatigue and physical toll of chemotherapy and radiation make maintaining a full work schedule unrealistic.


</div>


<div>Stephanie does not have extended family to lean on — just her young adult son — and so her friends and clients have encouraged her to allow us to step in and help by creating this GoFundMe.


</div>


<div>She still has a long road ahead. Funds raised will help cover:


</div>


<div>• The lymphovenous bypass procedure


</div>


<div>• Medical expenses not covered by insurance


</div>


<div>• Lost income during treatment and recovery


</div>


<div>• Basic living expenses during this time


</div>


<div>If you are able to give, any amount truly makes a difference. If donating isn’t possible, sharing this page would mean so much. And if you can do both — thank you, from the bottom of our hearts.

<div>Brent and Becka MacDonald’s lives have been defined by their love and dedication to their four children, who will be left without their beloved father very soon. The brain tumor Brent has been battling has returned and is terminal.
</div>

<div> 
</div>

<div>All of Brent and Becka’s love and resources have been focused on their four children; Macie, Kaden, Madison and Kylie. They’re wonderful, engaged and responsible young people who exhibit the daily love, care and guidance they’ve received from their parents.
</div>

<div> 
</div>

<div>Brent’s paramount concern is that Becka will have what she needs, without him, to ensure their kids keep moving forward with their lives and have the future he’s always worked for and envisioned for them.
</div>

<div> 
</div>

<div>Brent has spent his life helping troubled youth, now its our turn to help him. Your donation will give Brent peace of mind knowing his family will have the resources to help them as they adjust to what this new chapter of their lives will bring.<br /><br /><img src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/63049637_1643822060166420_r.jpeg" width="100%" media_type="3" alt="63049637_1643822060166420_r.jpeg" />July 30, 2021 - The MacDonald Family<br /><br /><img src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/63049637_1643822099923291_r.jpeg" width="100%" media_type="3" alt="63049637_1643822099923291_r.jpeg" />Oct 22, 2021 Brent with the Kids

Young Father of Four with Terminal Brain Cancer

I've started this fundraiser for my mother Doreen Leigh, to help her make this year a year of saying Yes to opportunities in life! <br /><br />Many of you may know Doreen as a piano teacher at Edmonds Heights K-12. She is a musician, a writer, a comedian, and a role model for so many kids at that school.<br /><br />Doreen has been in need of a new and reliable car for many years now. Her current car is a 1991 Buick Park Avenue with 166,000 miles on it, exterior damage, and water damage on the inside causing unhealthy conditions. It has been a "point A to point B" car for many years as it cannot go on the freeway and thus limiting her life in many ways. In addition, the car causes so much anxiety for her, not knowing if it will break down each day, and the problems are more frequent lately. <br /><br />What's amazing is that Doreen manifested this very car for our family 13 years ago when she was in great need of one. She asked god for help getting a car, and within two hours a woman from Edmonds Heights called her offering her their Buick. She was told she might be able to get a couple more years out of the car, and here we are 13 years later! I believe the Buick (we named Buck) is finally on it's last days. A few days ago my mother told me it no longer starts. <br /><br />My fiance Matt and I have been thinking about how to help her get a new car for about a year now. I knew the universe would give us the answer at some point if we put in the effort, and I believe this could be the answer.<br /><br />Doreen is also eligible to have a much needed eye surgery this year, fixing her eyesight that has been so bad and has also prevented her from being able to do the things she wants to do in life. I would be so incredibly happy if we could help in changing her life by giving her the option to buy a reliable car for herself.<br /><br />If you can donate any amount or even share this fundraiser with anyone that might know the wonderful Doreen Leigh, it would mean the world to us! &lt;3

Help Doreen Leigh get a reliable car!

Our hands are tied! <br /><br />We are a group of students at Seattle Central College. We need your help in supporting our students, faculty, and staff during these protests. All of us are having to deal with the struggle of completing or grading homework while also attending protests in support of Black and Brown communities. Our community is exhausted from being pulled between school and civic duty. <br /><br />We need your help to fund a support station at the South Plaza of Seattle Central College. The support station will be a place for all protesters to rest away from the front lines during these days of protest. We aim to stock the support station with: <br />• bottled water<br />• snacks<br />• milk<br />• basic first aid<br />• ear plugs<br />• PPE - masks<br />• sign making supplies (poster board, markers ... etc.)<br />• protest literature <br /><br />The Support Station is going live 2pm - 12am everyday starting today, 6.7. <br /><br />Broadway Business Improvement Area, Seattle Pridefest, and Seattle Central College will be providing portable bathrooms in the parking lot next to MudBay, across from Walgreens at the south end of campus starting Tuesday 6.9 through Monday 6.15. <br /><br />If you are willing and able to volunteer your time, please complete the volunteer sign up here: <strong><a href="https://tinyurl.com/support-station" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Volunteer Sign Up</a></strong>. <br />If you are unable to support the front lines, this is a great way to get involved and help. <br /><br />ANY and ALL additional funds not used will be donated to the following Seattle area, non-profit organizations that directly impact Black and Brown communities. <br />• <a href="https://www.notthistime.global/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Not This Time</a> <br />• <a href="https://blacklivesseattle.org/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Black Lives Matter Seattle</a> <br />• <a href="https://www.creativejusticenw.org/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Creative Justice</a> <br /><br /><br />Please consider helping anyway you can.<br /><br /><strong>THANK YOU!</strong><br /><br />Current money handling procedures: <br />Since this was quickly organized by students, myself (Michael Harris), have setup the withdrawals to myself. Jade, our lead support station student, will be purchasing the supplies needed for the station. Upon receipt of what has been purchased, reimbursement to Jade will be made. ANY and ALL remaining funds not used for this support station will be donated to the organizations listed above. To setup accountability, a ledger has been created and made publicly available through this Google doc: <a href="https://tinyurl.com/pss-ledger" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">PSS Ledger</a>. <br /><br /><br /><img src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/48559014_1592002821456385_r.jpeg" width="100%" media_type="3" alt="48559014_1592002821456385_r.jpeg" /><br /><br /><img src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/48559014_1591510937846668_r.jpeg" alt="48559014_1591510937846668_r.jpeg" width="100%" media_type="3" />

Protest Support Station (Seattle Area)

The statewide Coronavirus closures in Washington have made for some serious challenges for people in our community, particularly Workshop Instructors.<br /><br /><br />Our 26 Workshop Instructors bill for $35,000 each month, and many of them count on Edmonds Heights for their primary income.<br /><br /><br />Workshop Instructors offer classes to our students on a contract basis. Though they are not employees of the district, they are key people in the Edmonds Heights community. They teach Musical Theatre, Martial Arts, Art, Music and Science, among other passions. Due to school closures, our Workshop Instructors cannot offer services for which they can invoice. They are not being paid as school employees are.<br /><br /><br />This relief fund is set up by Edmonds Heights community members to support our Workshop Instructors during this time. Generating $55,000 will get funds to them that they would have counted on through April. If further relief funds are needed as a result of prolonged school closures, we will reassess our fundraising goals accordingly. All fundraising proceeds will go directly to our Workshop Instructors.

This man loves mountain biking.<br /><br />And, he loves his 25 year old bike. <br /><br />Which, best told in the words of Sawyer, "will soon impale him with shards of metal when hitting a rock just right –– it's only a matter of time."<br /><br />I'll hold off on telling the story about the three of us on the side of the trail for an hour, desperately trying to fix his broken chain, all six of our hands required.<br /><br />He needs a new mountain bike.<br /><br />This man's birthday is two days before Christmas!<br /><br />Which, as a kid must have really sucked. <br /><br />But, as an adult, can really work in one's favor! Consolidate all gift capacity for the kinds of things a person actually needs! <br /><br />His sons, Sawyer and Sage, and I are are reaching out on behalf of this man we love – to bring a new, <em>full suspension,</em> sweet ride into his life that will take good care of him for another 25 years.<br /><br /><strong>If you anticipated gifting Scott Mauk anything for his birthday or Christmas, join the cause of saving him from a grusome death from mountain-bike impalement :-)</strong><br /><br />Gregg's Cycle in Lynnwood is our destination. We have identified and placed a hold on a Trek Remedy 8 that is perfect for his use and needs – it helps that Sage really knows mountain bikes. Even Gregg's Cycle is in on this with us, granting a decent discount to meet the goal – price $2499.99.<br /><br />We will gift it with an extravagant bow, and a big card with all of the names of contributors [and perhaps try to fake/mock each of your signatures so it looks like we all got together to pick out the bike as a collective, and you each got to sign the card :-) ]<br /><br />Will you join us?<br /><br />Gratitude for supporting a fabulous cause, while also being relieved of birthday or Christmas gift dillemmas.<br /><br />[the *refined* Sawyer quote: "My father's 25 year old bike has the structural integrity of a banana.  And believe it or not I don't want him to die via a metal spike through the chest. Because he has no savings for me to fight over with my brother. And of course I love him. So yeah plz give us money. God bless"
