Lyme Warrior Inc. is literally my top resource go-to, not only for myself, but if I come across a Lyme patient who needs some direction with their healing journey I will most likely direct them to the Lyme Warrior website. Lauren has done an amazing job creating this organization to help the many needs of the Lyme community. I know Lauren doesn’t take any of this lightly and she is passionate to continue helping others. I’m very grateful!

Lyme warrior has give so many Lyme families hope. Their smile boxes help give Lyme kids just that a smile. Many Lyme kids get isolated and deal w friends and family not understanding and having this organization gives us all hope.
The information they provide is a great resource for families and individuals navigating all stages of their illness. In my opinion LymeWarrior is one of the best Lyme resources available.

An amazing organization that helps a community of hundreds of thousands of Lyme patients who are ignored by family, friends, and the medical community. They put a smile on the faces of children who are suffering from an awful disease. Not only are the products they sell (to fund the organization) of amazing quality, but the team in charge of Lyme Warrior Inc. is by far the most compassionate and caring team I've interacted with when it comes to Lyme disease and non-profits in general.

There are a lot of Lyme Disease Awareness non-profits out there doing excellent work throughout the community but, Lyme Warrior has a special element. They make you feel like family. The resources and knowledge Lyme Warrior provides is exceptional! The help financially, educationally and emotionally for parents, patients, kiddo's and other support teams is THE BEST you could ask for. As a Lyme family ourselves (Mom, Dad, Both Son's) it's a blessing to have had this support. Lyme Warrior even sponsored our "Maryland Lyme Disease Awareness campaign we ran this year. Though sick our selves in the middle of treatment, we knew we had to spread awareness and that we did! Lyme Warrior for Lyfe! - DV

My father passed away from Lyme Disease in 2018. Not realizing till after he passed, that his poorly treated Lyme Disease was the root of all of his mental & physical health issues. Lyme Warrior has helped educate me and everyone who loved my dad about this horrific and “underrated” disease. This has made a huge impact on the grieving process. Sadly the unknown of what was causing all of his pain lead to his suicide. A once strong, hard working, and always the one you wanted to be around at any event was a shell of himself. We need more organizations like Lyme Warrior to continue the battle to ensure the voices of everyone who has and continues to suffer are heard! Thank you LW for all that you do!!

I've had Lyme disease for 44 years and have been through hell and back, but this page has really seen me through a lot of crap in my life... I find a lot of answers here... I have also found some friends here..... and some that don't understand how advanced it can get quickly when something tragic happens in your life, like a car wreck where I had to have back surgery, stress that affects me emotionally, then going thru the death of my parents alone... I have had someone to talk to at the nonprofit when I need someone which helps with my PTSD.... there's just too much to put in here... but it's worth it to belong to this group....

500 CHILDREN MAY GET LYME TODAY ACROSS THE USA!
That becomes 182,000 each year! IS THAT OK?
WE proudly support and promote LYME WARRIOR...
SMILE BOXES really bring joy to our SICK KIDS and their families!
These 5K runs, projects, and "Challenges" are for making that...
(Smile Boxes) and GRANTS, and financial help... HAPPEN!
Will you help us? Will you help make it happen for our KIDS?
This help you see on LYME WARRIOR'S pages is made possible through donations directly to them... (not us... we promote the groups, we don't get money donated to us) and means so much to these thousands of families struggling to cope with Tick Bite infections...

My young daughter was diagnosed with Lyme Disease a couple of years ago after years of going undiagnosed. She started a pretty aggressive treatment that left her completely exhausted. She had to quit many of her usual activities and often found herself laying in bed. A lot of her childhood was robbed. Lyme Warrior sent her an amazing Smile Box over a year ago and it came at just the right time. She was grinning from ear to ear as she unwrapped all the goodies in her box. She is certainly a "Lyme Warrior" and it's been such a blessing to have others walk alongside us. The passion and ministry that Lyme Warrior provides is so important and one we are forever grateful for in our lives!

I love Lyme Warrior! I stumbled across this nonprofit almost four years ago on FB. First I was interested in the merchandise available to promote Lyme disease awareness. I was already on disability due to Lyme disease and was constantly running in to lack of education regarding the disease. A few months later I signed up to volunteer. I was so proud to be part of the many projects Lyme Warrior is always working on. I love having access to simple educational materials that I can hand out to help spread awareness. The merchandise is awesome too! I’m back working (in healthcare) and have little time to volunteer now, but when I can I always share Lyme Warrior with others.

I came across Lyme Warrior years ago when my boys were only a few years old. We were all at our worst battling Lyme disease and not that far into our treatment. Lyme Warrior sent both of our boys "Smile boxes" - boxes they create just for children battling Lyme disease to show that they care and to make them smile through all they are going through. This touched my heart so much to see the joy on my boys' faces when those boxes arrived during such a challenging time for all of us. Seeing your kids faces light up from the Smile Boxes after having so many tears and pain is truly priceless. Since then I have supported this wonderful organization as I am able (I love the gear too!!). I love knowing that Lyme Warrior raises money to help fund research and to provide many more smiles through care packages to other children who need to be uplifted during a tough battle. (And their moms and dads will be blessed by seeing their kids so happy too!! Such a huge blessing all around!) I am so thankful for this organization and still wear my Lyme Warrior gear on my tough days to help me remember that I'm not alone, I am a fighter and I WILL get through it and see better days. The founder has Lyme and knows firsthand how tough it is which is what drove her to help others. I love her heart so much and hope to hug her in person one day! So thankful Lyme Warrior exists to bless so many!!

Lyme Warrior Inc truly cares about giving back to those who are impoverished by tick-borne illnesses, especially children who are affected. They do everything they can to provide accurate, up to date, information that serve to help those affected directly and their families. Lyme Warrior has made such an amazing impact on the Lyme community, from sending “smile boxes” to kiddos to the little details of packing a fun “Lyme Warrior Rx” that has prescribed a nap or another form of self care in with the comfortable pair of leggings you ordered. The team works tirelessly to raise funds and awareness surrounding this epidemic. If you have the opportunity to speak with anyone at Lyme Warrior, you’ll know how much they care. Always proud to represent Lyme Warrior. Thanks y’all!

Lyme Warrior caught my attention online through Facebook with their knowledgable content and insiders angle as it's run by a true Lyme Disease warrior. Lauren, her partner Eric and their team's tireless efforts to fundraise for research and uplift the community through acts like "Smile Boxes" for children suffering from Lyme disease is a true standout. The awareness raising merchandise with proceeds going towards research is super excellent quality and cool! Nothing wrong with lime green shirts as you usually see but it was great to see something I would actually enjoy wearing whether it was for the cause or not because of the great designs. I wear my Lyme Warrior hat when I'm having really tough days but have to be out in public as an unspoken explanation of why I might seem "off" as I'm struggling. They do so much for the community and truly touch people's lives.

They raise funds for research through tatoo and massage shops across the US. My favorite thing they do is gather toys and treats for kids with Lyme disease. Twice a year they mail out smile boxes to these kids to help them forget about their disease just for an hour or day. I am so thankful to be a part of Lyme Warrior Inc.

What an amazing organization! The struggle is real for each and every person involved with Lyme Warrior as all of the volunteers are sick with Lyme. Lymies suffer from such a variety of symptoms that we can often be dismissed, by the people we most rely on. Because of that, life can be very isolating. As the saying goes, "they don't get it until they GET it." In addition, we really see the lack of acknowledgement and awareness of what this disease can do to people and their pets and the few options we have for treatment. Lyme Warrior gives us an opportunity to have a first hand impact on our own future and on the lives of others through Lyme Awareness and education campaigns. We raise money for Lyme disease research; an area that is grossly underfunded. And we share the love. Lyme Warrior community is just that, a community full of love and support and folks who know exactly what you're going through, so we send out Kid's Smile Boxes. They let kids suffering from Lyme know that we are right there with them, even if just in spirit, to put a smile on their faces. Lyme Warrior not only helps others, but it also gives it's volunteers a sense of pride and purpose while we're fighting our own illness. What we do gives me a future to hope for. It gives me something to hang on to. Lyme disease has caused me to put off some of my career aspirations and passions and working for Lyme Warrior has allowed me to keep my fingers in the pie. I love working for Lyme Warrior.

LW does so much for the Lyme community! Between fundraising and providing resources and outreach programs, this team works hard to make a difference & they are very transparent about exactly who and what you are supporting!

I have been sick with lyme disease for about 16 years. My son also has lyme that was diagnosed about a year after me. He was treated for 9 long years while I was also battling. Thank God that he is now in remission and doing everything his heart desires. We came across lyme warrior and absolutely fell in love with the founder!! The thing that caught my eye were the kids smile boxes. Twice a year lyme warrior collects different toys, books etc and sends out smile boxes to kids fighting lyme. Of course after watching my boy fight for so long and feeling alone this tugged on my heart. My son and I both got involved as much as we could to help with this outreach. There are a ton of other things lyme warrior does to help raise money for research and to help people that may not have the means to do so.

Lyme Warrior has been a great place for me, not only as a lymie but also as a volunteer. I started by being a part of their Facebook community but grew to love it so much I wanted to be a part of it! It works through my sickness and has given me an outlet for the struggles I go through.

When I was diagnosed with Lyme, I was scared. I had no idea what I was up against. I needed support, and a group where I could voice my issues and concerns in a platform where I wouldn’t be judged or where my questions would be answered in a manner that I would understand. I found that and so much more in LW. Not only is this a fantastic resource for Lymies, it is a great community for caregivers, support persons, etc. I have found a home in this community through volunteering and education. I truly don’t know where I would be without LW. I am forever grateful.

Before I became a volunteer, I was blown away by how one little badass Lyme Warrior was running this nonprofit while sick in bed! Lauren had a fresh, edgy approach to raising Lyme awareness and I wanted in on it lol! LW does it all! From collecting gifts to send to children with lyme, to getting tattoo artists to donate over $10,000, to writing a children's book, to running educational campaigns and designing merchandise...LW never stops. We will continue to raise money for research, patients in need, and (new this year) help dogs with Lyme disease! I couldn't be more proud to be a part of this Lyme family.

This organization and its founder never cease to amaze me! All of the volunteers and the founder have Lyme themselves. We do this because we know a change needs to happen. Lyme Warrior work to provide education, raise awareness and even does fundraisers to donate to various organizations or individuals working for a cure! I am so blessed to be even a small part of this organization!

I'll be honest--I'm a little biased because I volunteer for Lyme Warrior--but this is an INCREDIBLE nonprofit that does such amazing work. Not only does LW do major things to spread awareness and raise money for Lyme disease, but LW also supports it's local community and really stands with its volunteers. Something that might surprise you? Everyone who volunteers for this nonprofit has Lyme disease and none of us are getting paid. We do it because we care, because we believe in change and together we're stronger. I can't thank Lauren enough for creating this amazing organization and for allowing me to be a small part of it.
