A Community Call for Help

Dear Community Members,

One of our dearest Laotian community members has a serious health condition and needs as much help as she can get.  Her name is Photivanh Khamphilapanyo and she has IgA nephropathy.  Her kidneys are functioning at 15%.  She will need a kidney transplant.  Ms. Khamphilapanyo’s condition is considered pre-existing to any insurance company, so she will not get any coverage.  So the goal is to raise money towards a transplant and also to help pay for hospital expenses and medications.  Right now, the only working person in the house is Mr. Khamphilapanyo, hence, they only have one income.
