We are still overwhelmed by the support shown at the Grand Opening of our new Kourage Health Headquarters yesterday.

Thank you to KETK NBC for sharing our story, and thank you to everyone who took time out of their day to celebrate with us. We were also honored to have the Tyler Area Chamber of Commerce and the Lindale Area Chamber of Commerce join us for this special day.

We would also like to extend a huge thank you to Skip Ogle and OGLE Construction, LLC. We are so grateful for his guidance, patience, and commitment to helping create a space that feels welcoming and empowering, and that reflects the heart of our mission.

This building would not exist without the generosity of our donors, foundations, business partners, and friends who believed in this dream and helped bring it to life. Because of you, more individuals and families facing cancer and other serious health conditions will have a place to find renewed strength, encouragement, and compassionate support for years to come.

Thank you for being part of this journey and for helping us continue Dr. Kimmel's legacy. 💙

This is Mr. Garrett.

After lymphoma, even a squat once took everything he had.
And now, he makes it look easy.

That’s what showing up over time can do.
To everyone who has already given, thank you. 💛
On behalf of Mr. Garrett, Ross, and everyone here at Kourage Health, we hope you’ve been able to see the real impact you’re making. These moments are yours just as much as they are ours.

We’ve reached our matching goal, and we’re celebrating! But this mission doesn’t stop here.

Our patients don’t just need us for a day.
They need us tomorrow, next month, and for as long as it takes.

Join us in continuing this work. There’s still time. It still matters! www.easttexasgivingday.org/organization/kouragehealth

This is Kelvin.
Working hard.
Stretching through it.
Offering his gratitude.

Then there’s Saahir.
Right there beside him.
Patient. Steady.
Encouraging him through every stretch.

And then there's you. Making sure moments like this are even possible. To everyone who has already given today, thank you!

If you haven't had the chance to give yet, there's still time, and your generosity will stretch even further.

More moments within reach.
More progress, even when it's hard.
More strength through every stretch.

Be part of our mission. Give today. Your support matters.
