Help Hope Live for Julie Kosta

November 22, 2025

Life is full of adventures, and Julia still dreams of enjoying them all. She wants to cook and can with love, gather with the people who fill her heart, and explore the outdoors with her husband, Tim, and their little dog, Teddy. But right now, she needs a little help to keep those dreams within reach.Dear friends, family, and kind-hearted strangers,Many of you know that Julia is living with advanced kidney disease. What some may not realize is just how much it has taken from her. Each day brings overwhelming fatigue, persistent nausea, swelling, and pain—symptoms that make even the simplest joys feel out of reach. Activities she once loved now require strength she is fighting to hold onto.Julia has reached a point where a kidney transplant is no longer just an option—it is her only chance to reclaim a healthy and fulfilling life. Without it, she won’t be able to return to the moments and memories that make her who she is.She now has a fundraising campaign through Help Hope Live to help cover the immense medical expenses associated with this lifesaving transplant—costs that will continue for the rest of her life. The anti-rejection medications alone are extraordinarily expensive, yet she will need them every day to keep her new kidney functioning.This is not an easy thing for Julia to ask. She is humble, grateful, and deeply aware of the kindness it takes for someone to help a person they may never meet. But your generosity—whether through a donation or by simply sharing her story—has the power to change the course of her life.If you feel moved to help, donations can be made to Help Hope Live in her name, Julia Kosta. Sharing her story with your community can make an enormous difference, too.Julia is profoundly touched by every prayer, message, and act of support she has received. From the bottom of her heart, thank you for giving her hope, strength, and the chance to embrace life’s adventures once again.
