My Story

Meningitis has left a heartbreaking mark on my family. My grandma tragically passed away from it before I was born. Both my cousin and uncle became seriously ill fighting the same disease. Meningitis is fast-moving and can be deadly within hours, which is why knowing the warning signs, such as fever, headache, stiff neck, sensitivity to light, and a rash that doesn’t fade under pressure, is so important. I’m raising funds to support life-saving research, awareness, and education so that more people recognize the signs early and fewer families have to suffer the way mine has. Every donation, no matter the size, makes a difference.
