ABOUT US
Lupus isn’t only a silent disease but also a costly one; which is why we wanted to start this non-profit organization primarily focused on helping those in need of resources, emotional support and community. As a Lupus warrior myself I would like to provide an outlet for those who need to express themselves in a world that often turns a blind eye to this unseen battle. The funding of this organization will be used to make a difference. We are a 501(c)(3). Support is crucial, I’ve tried to do this alone but I now understand I must have more than just me. I am beyond thankful knowing that friends, family, and the community are willing to come together to make a difference.

Ashley Charlestin
Secretary
Honestly, I started Channel My Lupus so know one feels as alone as I did when I was diagnosed. All I could find were pictures of rashes but no evidence of real people going through the same real things I was facing.
"Hello, My name is Ashley. I'm apart of Channel My Lupus because I want to bring aid to this silent /invisible battle that affects so many people".

"I am apart of Channel My Lupus because I believe in the importance of community and enjoying life, especially for those affected by lupus. Having family and friends with the condition, I've seen their health struggles, and Channel My Lupus offers a vital platform and resources for those facing these challenges. Together, we support one another so no one has to face lupus alone".
