About Hope Abounds
Early in 2009 our lives and careers were in full swing when our daughter Kelly, only 32, was diagnosed with cancer.
Medical treatment followed Kelly’s diagnosis, however, through it all, we discovered how often her needs were not being met, or addressed, or were unknown to us at the time.
As we made this journey with our daughter, we decided to commit our lives to serving others who would find themselves in this same crisis of being diagnosed with cancer. Later that same year, we established the Hope Abounds Cancer Network.

This is my story.
“They are here with us for the long run, and I 100% have that faith in my heart that God brought this organization together to help families like mine and to help us get through and believe and fight for just another day. Their compassion, their willingness to prioritize and make sure that our family is okay is beyond anything that we have ever experienced, and we are forever grateful to Hope Abounds.”
