Rallying for Christian: Donate to Make a Difference

Donation protected
We are reaching out again to ask for your support for the Pinto family as they continue to navigate unimaginable challenges. Christian, their one-year-old, was diagnosed with Ewing’s sarcoma on July 7th after what seemed like a minor bump on his leg. This rare and aggressive cancer has turned their lives upside down. Christian is likely facing either a limb salvage surgery or amputation on his leg where the tumor started. Both surgeries are extremely expensive, and the cost of prosthetics is overwhelming. Since he will need to change prosthetics frequently as he grows, this financial strain will be ongoing.

On top of this, the family may need to travel out of state in the near future for Christian’s specialized treatment. With both parents out of work to care for their other children and make these trips for his treatment, the financial stress is immense. Donations will go directly toward Christian’s treatment, medical bills, and travel expenses as they face this ongoing fight.

Despite everything, Christian remains a beacon of light, bringing joy to his nurses and doctors with his strength and playful spirit. His parents, Sara and Ross, are trying to stay strong for him, but they are living every parent’s worst nightmare, all while trying to care for their other children and maintain some normalcy.

We invite you to join us in supporting the Pinto family in any way you can. Whether through prayers, donations to their GoFundMe, or contributing to their meal train, every bit of help brings them much-needed relief during this incredibly difficult time. If you prefer to donate through Venmo, you can send it to: @Sara-Pinto-11.

Please share this with others to help spread the word and surround this family with love and support. Thank you for standing with the Pinto family as they fight for Christian’s recovery and a brighter future.
