I have been battling with health issues for several years. At this moment, I am in a severely, critical situation, in which I now need a lung transplant to survive. I am asking family and friends to join me in raising funds for the nonprofit, Help Hope Live, to help with the medical expenses I will face immediately after surgery.
I have lived a positive and productive life despite my health condition. I am very active at the YMCA and I love to help others in need in every opportunity that I can.
While I have health insurance, surprisingly and unfortunately, many medical costs, vital medications, and transplant-related expenses are very expensive.
Donations to Help Hope Live can help ease the financial burden of a transplant and allow me to focus on a healthy recovery alongside my family.
Make a donation right now by visiting helphopelive.org and searching for Katrina Johnson or by calling 800.642.8399. Donations are tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law, and all funds raised will be used to offset medical expenses as part of the Help Hope Live Midwest-West Transplant Fund.
Help Hope Live is a national nonprofit that specializes in engaging communities in fundraising campaigns for people who need a transplant or are affected by a catastrophic injury or illness. Since 1983, campaigns organized by Help Hope Live have raised over $131 million to pay patient expenses. Thank you!
