The Luna Cares Fund was founded in honor of Lisa Ciampa's late mother, Sara Davis Emery, who lost her battle with cancer at the age of 40. Sara fought despite knowing that although they had health insurance, her family would continue to pay medical costs long after her death. This knowledge caused her great distress during her illness and many times, as a result, she questioned whether to continue treatments. Unfortunately, this story is familiar to many women; making family needs a priority over their personal health.
