We recently learned that Mochi's mother has been diagnosed with stage 3 and 4 cancer (and she has consented to us sharing this personal information). We're happy to say that she has good insurance and won't need personal financial assistance through this difficult time! But we still want to raise money in support of her, her mom, and people everywhere who are affected by lung cancer.

Mochi has asked that we support the GO2 Foundation for Lung Cancer. You can learn more about them and what they do here: https://go2foundation.org/

• Making lung cancer visible to the general public to build supportive awareness, reduce stigma, and foster patient and caregiver engagement with our vital services.
