At ThriveWell Cancer Foundation, we are deeply honored to be among the beneficiaries of the Mary Louise Lopez Trust, a meaningful legacy established through the beautiful and impactful work of the late Mary Louise Lopez, an accomplished artist whose creativity and spirit live on through her art. The generous support is made possible by her lifelong friend, Irene Peche, who oversees the trust and continues to share Mary Louise’s artwork with the world through www.mlopezart.com. After her cancer diagnosis, Mary Louise was compelled to help others in the fight, encouraging Hispanic family, friends and loved ones of all races to take every opportunity to go to the doctor and be proactive with their health. Mary Louise passed away in 2022 but she is still providing help to others. All proceeds from the sales of Mary Louise’s vast collection of stunning art fund the trust, go to funding cancer research and to helping others going through treatment. We are privileged to share the following tribute, written by Irene, celebrating the vibrant life and enduring legacy of Mary Louise Lopez. Read more

Thank you to Rudy’s BBQ for an unforgettable night in Leon Springs, where new friendships were made, old ones rekindled, and a shared passion for giving back brought us all together.

We are deeply grateful to Tim and Christy Louton for their warm hospitality and continued support of ThriveWell’s mission to serve cancer patients in our community. Your generosity helps us provide life-changing services to those who need them most. And the support doesn’t stop there! Rudy’s is continuing to raise funds for ThriveWell through the sale of their “Sause” and signature air fresheners through June 30. Every purchase helps us do more for the patients and families we serve. Thank you for standing with us, one brisket, one bottle, and one friend at a time.
