Carmeleta has always lived a positive and productive life despite her chronic health condition. She has never let health challenges get in the way of achieving her dreams-from being a mother and a grandmother and in general just thankful for life itself it is truly a gift from God. Carmeleta’s positive attitude and lifestyle (quitting smoking which was tough due to the effects it has on people with the disease) helped her to avoid the inevitable for a period of time, but now kidney is only functioning at 05% and she needs our help.

While Carmeleta’s health insurance, many transplant expenses are surprisingly no covered, such as the monthly anti-rejection medications she needs to take for the life of her new kidney. Carmeleta has been told to anticipate upwards of 5,000 per month just for medications alone.

Donations to Help Hope Live can help ease the financial burden of a transplant and allow Carmeleta to focus on a healthy recovery and a long life ahead with her children and grandchildren

Family and friends of Carmeleta Hoston are raising money for the nonprofit Help Hope Live to fund uninsured medical expenses associated with transplantation.

Carmeleta has chosen to fundraise for Help Hope Live in part because Help Hope Live assures fiscal accountability of funds raised and tax deductibility for contributors. Contributors can be sure donations will be used to pay or reimburse medical and related expenses. To make a tax-deductible donation to this fundraising campaign, click on the Give button.
