Donate to a beautiful Whanau from Hastings who has been through more than any family should.
Auckland
The Edge has done 5 Marathons in 5 days to fundraise for a beautiful little girl and now we are going to attempt to sing Karaoke for 24 hours all in the name of a good cause...Raising 100k for The Jones Family.
The Jones family has been through more than any family should, after losing two children from a freak accident and brain cancer, to having the struggles that come with caring for another sibling/child who suffers from severe Autism, Epilepsy, and West Syndrome, and two amazing parents both undergoing treatment for Breast and Bowel cancer, we would love to do what we can to support them and future proof the whanau.
The costs that come along with all of these challenges are enormous, but if anything, it has brought the family closer than ever...sisters Kiri and Blain (who has three children of her own) have left their jobs and moved down to Hastings and to chip in and help the family while the parents undergo treatment and to care for their Autistic 14-year-old brother.
With no one in the family able to earn an income we are going to assemble an army of Edge listeners to donate towards future-proofing this whanau and making their lives easier during the hardship.
The Edge Radio Station are supporting this deserved family by fundraising on behalf of them.
The funds raised will go towards treatments and taking the financial pressure off the whanau while they work through their challenges.
