Warriors for Frank - Help Frank conquer cancer again!

Donation protected
Hi, my name is Penny and I'm fundraising for Frank, my brother from another mother, his wife Rebecca who is one of my best friends and their teenage son William. Frank has lived ion Orillia his whole life, and Rebecca moved into her Grandparents' house on O'brien Street in Orillia.

For over a decade, Frank and his wife Rebecca have been fighting their own separate battles with cancer. Frank was recently diagnosed with aggressive stage 4 non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, which has attacked the base of his spine, making the situation even more complicated. He is now facing a challenging road of treatments that may include a stem cell transplant, which means he’ll be unable to work for at least a year.

This diagnosis comes on the heels of losing his job due to restructuring, making this time even harder. Both Frank and Rebecca’s pre-existing cancer conditions have made them ineligible for mortgage insurance, which means they now face the risk of losing their home—a home that has been in Rebecca’s family for generations.

Rebecca has taken on a full-time job and two side hustles to keep up with mounting bills, but the financial strain is overwhelming. We’re asking for your support to help cover their household bills, allow for necessary renovations to accommodate Frank’s mobility challenges, and keep this treasured family home.

Any donation, big or small, will allow Frank to focus fully on his recovery without the fear of losing his home. Your kindness will help provide stability, relief, and hope during this incredibly difficult time. Thank you for standing with Frank, Rebecca and William in their fight.
