This is how we feel about school drop off 😑 Who thinks I should make her stay up for school work, and who thinks we should crawl back in bed for a nap? I mean, I can’t let her be on her own!

We would love for you to join in honor of our sweet Kinlee Karter! It doesn’t matter where you are!!!!

✨ Meet our friend, Ava. ✨

Ava was a beautiful ballerina, a radiant girl with so much life ahead of her. At just 12 years old, she was diagnosed with Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma (DIPG) after experiencing headaches and double vision. Her parents will never forget the day doctors said the words: “tumor,” “brainstem,” “inoperable,” and “she has about a year to live.” Their hearts shattered as they learned the only “standard of care” for DIPG was radiation—something that could shrink the tumor for a time, but not stop it from coming back.

But Ava was strong, determined, and full of grace. She enrolled in clinical trials, traveled hundreds of miles for treatment, and endured radiation twice. For 21 months, she danced through the darkest of days with courage and faith. In June 2022, at just 14 years old, Ava laid down her sword. She is forever remembered, forever loved. 💛

Ava’s story is why we fight; her fight inspired her parents to form En Pointe for Ava. DIPG is cruel—it steals a child’s ability to swallow, speak, walk, and even breathe—all while keeping them fully aware. And still, there is no cure. Clinical trials are the only hope children like Ava have for more time.

We are proud to take the Boo! Brain Cancer Challenge in her honor, and invite you to join us. Whether you walk, run, or ride, every mile and every dollar raised helps fund critical research.

And don’t forget to log your miles, post your photos, and tag us with so the world knows who you’re moving for.

Together, we can honor Ava’s light and fight for brighter futures. ✨

Kinlee attended the Stephen F. Austin State University VS McNeese game tonight! She got to see her SFA Women's Basketball team through Team IMPACT get their chamionship rings as well as meet the dance team! They danced with gold poms tonight for Childhood Cancer Month, and we both thought that was really cool. Thank you to our friends Bear, Kristi, and Nacogdoches Coca Cola Bottling Co for making tonight possible! We had a blast!
