Help a Family Facing Cancer and Job Loss

Donation protected
Hi everyone,

I’m starting this fundraiser for my boyfriend’s family, who have been going through an incredibly difficult time. His stepmom, who has been like a second mother to me, was diagnosed with glioblastoma, an aggressive form of brain cancer. Her treatments have been long, exhausting, and extremely expensive.

On top of that, his dad recently lost his job of 10 years due to government funding cuts, leaving them in a really tough financial situation. With medical bills piling up and now the unexpected cost of having to move, they are struggling more than ever.

This family has been nothing but loving and generous to me since my boyfriend and I started dating two years ago. After losing my own mom to cancer when I was 10, I never expected to find a second family, but they welcomed me with open arms. They gave me a house key, invited me on family vacations, and always made sure I felt at home. His stepmom would cook for me all the time, his dad helped me file my taxes, and I’ve been a part of every family gathering; including the one in this picture from Lunar New Year.

Now, I want to give back. I haven’t told them about this fundraiser yet, I want it to be a surprise; but I know it would mean the world to them. My boyfriend does not know about this as I have blocked him and his family from my social media stories. After the fundraiser, I will put every single donors name on a card so they know how many people took the time to make their lives a little easier.

If you can donate, anything helps. If you can’t, please share this with others. Let’s come together to support a family that has given so much love to those around them.

Thank you so much.
