The Balling for Lupus Luvs Foundation is deeply sadden by the passing of Former WNBA Player, Kara Braxton.
Kara was more than a champion on the court, she was one of our very first celebrity coaches at our annual Balling for Lupus Luvs charity event. From the very beginning, she believed in our mission and showed up with generosity, strength, and heart.
Her willingness to lend her time, platform, and presence helped us raise awareness for Lupus and inspire young women in our community. She played a meaningful role in helping us build what this foundation represents today.
We are forever grateful for her support and the light she shared with us.
Our thoughts and prayers are with her family, friends, former teammates, and all who were impacted by her life.
Her legacy will continue to live on through the lives she touched.
With love and gratitude,
Balling for Lupus Luvs Foundation 💜
