Your support makes all the difference for families like the Kellums.

Meet Lindsay and Cory, parents of five wonderful kids. Kade is their youngest child who has a 5q14.3 deletion which is a rare genetic condition in which a piece is missing from one of the body’s 46 chromosomes. The missing piece can be tiny or much larger but includes important genetic material.

Families like theirs receive personalized and practical care from a Spreading Sunshine Care Coordinator, monthly mailings, and emotional and spiritual support.

This year, we’re on a mission to raise $20,000 to help more families like the Kellums. Your contribution will mean the world to us, helping us provide essential support to those who need it most.
