TAY’S STORY

At 21 years old, Tay organized a simple toy drive to give back to the treatment facility that once cared for her and to celebrate her remission anniversary. What began as a small act of gratitude quickly became something much bigger. The overwhelming support from the community and the emotional connection she experienced with families inspired the creation of WithLove Charity.

For more than fourteen years, Tay has coordinated fundraisers, hospital celebrations, toy drives, care package deliveries, sporting event experiences, and special moments for families affected by pediatric cancer... all while working a full-time job. What began in Jacksonville, Florida, has continued to grow throughout Nashville, Tennessee, where she has expanded WithLove’s impact over the past nine years.

Since officially becoming a registered nonprofit in 2016, WithLove’s programs have touched the lives of hundreds of children across the country. Tay’s motivation comes from the relationships she builds with families, the joy she witnesses during difficult seasons, and her belief that sharing your story can help bring healing and hope to others. She credits the organization’s growth to the incredible support of board members, volunteers, donors, and community partners who continue helping bring the mission to life.

Through WithLove, Tay hopes to be a visible light for Childhood Cancer Awareness while continuing to expand programs that remind every child in the fight that they are seen, celebrated, and deeply loved.
