Fundraising for brain cancer research
Nationwide
I’m fundraising for brain cancer research; a cause that has become deeply personal to me.
Over the past year, I’ve been living with the uncertainty of a brain tumour diagnosis. Mine is currently being monitored, but the reality is that brain tumours are unpredictable. There’s no clear roadmap and for many people, treatment options are still limited, especially in New Zealand. That uncertainty is something I carry every day.
What has struck me most through this experience is how underfunded brain cancer research is compared to other cancers, despite how devastating it can be. Outcomes haven’t improved nearly as much as they should have and that’s something I want to help change, even in a small way.
This fundraiser is my way of turning something difficult into something meaningful. Every donation will go toward research focused on better treatments and ultimately, hope for people facing brain cancer.
I am a brain tumour patient.
All funds raised will be donated to Brain Tumor Research
