Lindsey Kring

We’re grateful to the WJAC team for spotlighting the May fundraiser in honor of Lindsey Kring, a 33-year-old living with rare diagnoses and fundraising with Help Hope Live for critical out-of-pocket medical costs.

Lindsey’s birthday fundraiser was held on May 27 with a percentage of sales donated to Help Hope Live in her honor.

The writer, poet, musician, and nature-lover was a civil engineer until 2023 while battling chronic inflammatory response syndrome (CIRS).

Many of the costs that are essential to a healthier future for Lindsey are not covered by insurance, including IV infusion therapy, specialist appointments, and deep cleaning at her home to maintain safe air quality.
