Help raise funds to support Sarah Jayne and her family during this difficult time to make precious memories

Dunedin, Otago

Our larger than life Sarah Jayne with the most contagious laugh is facing the unimaginable - a terminal cancer diagnosis that has changed her life and the lives of everyone who loves her, especially her daughter Mia.

Despite the pain, fear and uncertainty, Sarah Jayne continues to face each day with her positive outlook, and continues to make those around her laugh.

Not only is Sarah Jayne facing her own battle, but she has been supporting her step dad Tony as he sadly also battles his own terminal cancer diagnosis.

This fund has been created to support Sarah Jayne and her family during this incredibly difficult time. All donations will go towards easing financial burden at this time, creating lasting memories with her loved ones, especially young Mia, and ensuring peace and comfort in her remaining time.

Every contribution, no matter the size, is deeply appreciated. If you are unable to donate, sharing this page or sending a message of support would mean the world.

Let's surround Sarah Jayne with the love, care and dignity she deserves ❤️

Round two - complete!   9 November 2025

Sarah-Jayne has now completed her second round of chemotherapy  (sorry I got it wrong in the first update! She is having 6 rounds over 18 weeks. Sarah-Jayne had a good laugh at that!) — a big milestone on this long journey. She’s doing her best to stay strong and positive through it all.

She now has a PICC line in place to make the treatments a little easier going forward. It’s been a tough road, but Sarah-jayne continues to face each challenge as it comes.

Sarah-jayne has some exciting things to look forward to, once she is feeling up to it after her rounds of chemo. Keep an eye out for those updates! It's with your generosity that this is possible! A huge thank you from us all 🤍

Please keep Sarah-jayne in your thoughts as she moves into her next rounds of treatment, and please keep sharing this page to show our support for her 💛

2% Effective Fee
On average, fundraisers pay just 2% to use Givealittle. This is one of the lowest effective fees in New Zealand fundraising. We charge a 5% platform fee to cover the cost of running the platform. Because most donors choose to top up their donation to cover this fee, the effective cost paid by fundraisers is about 2%. That means around 98 cents of every dollar raised goes to the cause.
