Compassionate safety education Credential-checking resources Education—not medical advice

Support the mission

Help more people approach cosmetic surgery with better information.

The Layssa Cosmetic Surgery Awareness Foundation honors Layssa’s memory by advancing compassionate safety education, surgeon and facility verification awareness, and practical support for individuals, families, and communities.

Every form of support matters. There is no pressure to give.

The heart behind the mission

Your support carries a life and a legacy forward.

The Foundation began with love for Layssa and the people whose lives she touched. These moments of family, friendship, and joy are why the mission stays focused on helping others protect the people and moments they cherish.

Giving is always a personal choice. Whether you contribute, volunteer, or share a trusted resource, you help compassionate safety education reach farther.

Choose what feels right

Every amount can help move education forward.

Enter any amount on PayPal. After a completed payment is securely confirmed, the Foundation website identifies the matching recognition level. Donors may give without requesting public recognition or a benefit.

Major giving and recognition

Your level is based on the confirmed donation amount

Donations of $1,000 or more may qualify for the optional benefits below, subject to availability and final written fulfillment terms. Donors may decline every benefit.

Nothing is published automatically. No donor name, memorial, message, photo, icon, logo, banner, or design description will appear online or in a public display until the Foundation has reviewed and approved it and the donor has separately authorized that specific public use.

After payment, eligible donors may request or decline benefits. Before fulfillment or public recognition, the Foundation will provide applicable limits, final written terms, and a good-faith value for goods or services provided. Payment acknowledgments will describe any benefit accepted by the donor. Every level includes an anonymous-giving option. A donor may remain anonymous while separately authorizing a reviewed memorial.

Your recognition choices

Tell us what, if anything, we may share.

Payment and recognition information are handled separately. The secure processor handles payment details. A separate Foundation form collects only the information needed for a shirt, acknowledgment, memorial, donor-wall entry, or sponsorship request.

Eligible donors receive the private recognition form on the return page after PayPal confirms a completed payment. The amount in a browser address is never used to assign a level.

Information the private form may request

  • Receipt name, email, and payment reference
  • Public display name or an anonymous-giving choice
  • In-honor or in-memory name and a short message
  • Optional photo, organization name, website, or logo
  • A design description when the donor does not already have artwork
  • Shirt size and shipping address only when a shirt is requested

Permission follows the donor's display choice

  • Public-use authorization is mandatory when public donor or memorial recognition is requested
  • No public-use authorization is required for a fully private or anonymous submission
  • A donor may keep their identity private while separately authorizing a memorial
  • No permission boxes selected in advance
  • Confirmation that the submitter has the right to share uploaded material
  • Foundation review before anything appears publicly
  • A contact route to request correction or removal

No artwork yet? Describe what you want.

A donor may describe the requested icon, short text treatment, banner, memorial image, or logo concept and upload any approved photo or source material. The Foundation may prepare a simple layout within the selected level's size limit. Production, one proof, final approval, and any revision limit must be confirmed before publication.

Before you give

Legal and giving information

Federal tax status

The Foundation has not received IRS recognition as a tax-exempt organization under section 501(c)(3). Contributions are not currently represented as tax-deductible. Donors should consult their own tax adviser.

Florida charitable solicitation

The Layssa Cosmetic Surgery Awareness Foundation, Inc. is a Florida nonprofit corporation operating under Florida small-charitable-organization compliance number CH84747, active through August 17, 2027, subject to continuing eligibility and annual renewal requirements.

A COPY OF THE OFFICIAL REGISTRATION AND FINANCIAL INFORMATION MAY BE OBTAINED FROM THE DIVISION OF CONSUMER SERVICES BY CALLING TOLL-FREE (800-435-7352) WITHIN THE STATE. REGISTRATION DOES NOT IMPLY ENDORSEMENT, APPROVAL, OR RECOMMENDATION BY THE STATE.

Purpose and questions

Contributions are requested to advance the Foundation's cosmetic-surgery safety education, verification awareness, compassionate community outreach, and the responsible operations needed to deliver that work. To ask a question or request available financial information, contact the Foundation.

Receipts, benefits, and sponsorships

The Foundation will provide a payment confirmation or acknowledgment showing the contribution date and amount. If a donor accepts a shirt, advertising, banner, or another good or service, the acknowledgment will describe that benefit and provide a good-faith estimate of its value when applicable. No part of a payment is currently represented by the Foundation as deductible for federal income-tax purposes.

A banner, advertisement, promotional placement, or other substantial return benefit may be treated as a sponsorship or exchange transaction rather than a pure donation. Final placement, duration, content standards, availability, fulfillment, and refund terms must be accepted before a benefit is fulfilled or public recognition begins.

Privacy and public recognition

Public recognition is optional. A donation does not by itself authorize the Foundation to publish a donor's name, giving amount, memorial, photograph, organization name, website, or logo. The recognition form requires affirmative public-use authorization whenever the donor requests public donor or memorial recognition. The authorization is not required for a fully private or anonymous submission. The Foundation will review submitted material before any publication or display.

Planned use of funds

Support would help turn awareness into practical education.

When donations become available, funds are intended to support mission-aligned programs and the responsible operating work needed to deliver them. Specific allocations may vary as programs and budgets are formally established.

Safety education

Develop and share clear educational materials about questions to ask, informed consent, preparation, recovery awareness, and warning signs.

Verification awareness

Help people understand how to check surgeon credentials, board-certification claims, and surgical-facility information using authoritative sources.

Community education and support

Expand compassionate outreach, learning opportunities, and resources for individuals, families, and community partners.

Responsible mission delivery

Support the tools, accessibility, administration, and other necessary operating work that helps educational programs reach people reliably.

In Layssa’s memory

Every program is guided by a simple purpose: carry Layssa’s memory forward through education that encourages careful questions, informed choices, and respect for every person.

Our commitment

Trust is built through clarity.

The Foundation will keep donation status, giving methods, and mission use clearly separated from tax, legal, or regulatory claims. Questions are welcome before anyone chooses to contribute.
