“God, the Lord, is my strength; he makes my feet like the deer’s; he makes me tread on my high places.” Habakkuk 3:19

At the age of 11, Shawn was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes. Life as a diabetic comes with challenges and hurdles, and four years ago another challenge was thrown Shawn’s direction when he was diagnosed with Stage Three Chronic Kidney Disease. Through diet changes and the help of a great nephrologist, Shawn was able to slow the progression of this disease. Three months ago, however, Shawn’s lab showed that he would need to be placed on the transplant list for a kidney/pancreas, and our journey with transplant began.

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

Shawn 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.
