Voices of Hope

Matt Nix with his wife and two young children, one toddler girl and one young boy, in an outdoor family portrait. Matt has light skin and short hair, and his wife has light skin and blonde hair to her shoulders.

Timothy Russell is seated on a public bench inside a mall with three young boys, all smiling and clutching matching black bear teddie bears. Timothy has light skin, a light gray goatee, glasses, and short gray hair and wears jeans and a mint green sweater.

Suzel is a young woman with light brown skin, dark eyes, eyeliner, dark pink lipstick, and dark brown hair to her shoulders. She wears a flower print top and a gold locket-style necklace.

Ray Kelly is pictured in front of a fireplace mantle decorated with lights, flowers, and autumn touches. He has light skin, a short red-gray goatee, blue eyes, glasses, and a thin ponytail all the way down to his mid-chest that is tied with multiple bands to form a neat style. His female partner has light skin, light eyes, and straight brown hair and wears a magenta pink sweater.

Post-transplant, Laurie Gerow takes a hospital bed selfie wearing a gown, a rose-colored sweater, black-rimmed glasses, and light fuschia-dyed hair. She has light skin and a smile.

Beth Hollopeter is surrounded by standing and seated family members in shades of teal, blue, white, and red in this family portrait. Beth has light skin, blonde wavy hair to her shoulders, and red lipstick. 14 surrounding family members range in skin color, eye color, and age from baby to adult.

Darwin Hedges has light skin, light eyes, a sandy red and white beard, and short sandy hair. He wears a pair of large black headphones and a corduroy slate grate button-up shirt with the first two buttons undone.

Kathleen Hartman is a slim light-skinned woman standing on a rocky trail with a beautiful mountain and valley view behind her. With glasses, a ball cap, and a red drinking thermos, Kathleen wears a fleece gray sweater, blue jeans, and hiking shoes.

Ligia Sanchez is pictured with a man and a toddler, all grinning. Ligia has light brown skin, dark eyes, and sandy straight brown hair to her shoulders. The man has dark eyes, light skin, and a gray-brown light beard with short dark hair. The toddler has light brown skin, dark eyes, and dark short hair and wears pink gingham and a bib.

Your Help – Their Hope!

Thanks to you, Help Hope Live client families celebrate the gift of life every month. Community-based fundraising is a critical bridge between what insurance covers and what transplant candidates and recipients truly need to heal, live, and thrive.

You can be the reason a transplant patient finds trusted medical fundraising and one-on-one support from our team next month.

Make a donation to keep our mission strong – and we’ll keep offering help and hope at times of overwhelming need for transplant families across the country.
