"When I found out about the creation of Team Stella my mind couldn’t help but fast forward - to be able to tell my daughter about how Team Stella, in her honor, will change the lives of children and parents and sisters and brothers and grandparents around the world. To know that because of your support, we can change the world in honor of Stella - it takes my breath away."

Are you a biking enthusiast? Do you enjoy walking 1 mile or 26 miles? Become a Superhero by joining one of our teams! Help find a cure for LCH!
We believe finding a new, more effective, and less toxic treatment for LCH is possible. Your donation can make this a reality.
We first began our support for LCH research and treatment soon after Stella’s diagnosis in 2016. The donations and support were immediate and overwhelming. It was and continues to be the support from an entire network of what we consider Stella’s Superheroes that is bringing life to our mission -- developing new therapies against LCH to improve the lives of children suffering the devastating effects of this disease.
