Cherry was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma in August. The oncology team at Pasig University Hospital has planned 6 rounds of treatment, starting in November. She will be away from work for about 5 weeks. Cherry is 32, worked as a construction supervisor until August, and has always been the one who looks after everyone else. Now it's our turn to look after her. Treatment is covered only in part. Medication that isn't on the approved list, trips to Pasig University Hospital 5 times a week, and the income the family has lost add up quickly. We've already sold what we could and have begun borrowing for groceries. Every kindness from you takes weight off her shoulders. Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment. Where the $850 goes: โ€ข Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $700 โ€ข Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $55 โ€ข Scans and lab work: $95 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself. - John Paul

    I can't speak highly enough about this helper. They were available when I needed them, supportive when I felt lost, and practical in their solutions.

    Changed my perspective

    This is what community support looks like. They didn't just offer generic advice; they provided personalized help tailored to my specific situation.
