Help Amanda access life-saving cancer treatment

Amanda Broughton’s friends and whānau think she is worth her weight in gold. Your donation today will literally help save her life.

In November 2023, Amanda was diagnosed with triple negative breast cancer, an aggressive form of breast cancer that doesn’t respond as well to conventional treatment. Since then she has undergone five months of chemotherapy, a total mastectomy and reconstruction, and will soon face radiation and further chemotherapy. Her treatment thus far has not managed to eradicate her cancer. She would like to pursue immunotherapy treatment (Keytruda), a drug that has been shown to reduce the chance of recurrence of this type of cancer in clinical trials. However, the cost of this treatment is roughly $100,000 and is not funded for her stage of cancer (3C). Amanda and her partner Brendon are not able to afford this cost. Amanda is a 36 year old mum of two young girls (ages 2 and 6), an athlete, a kickass employee for Hatch, and a loyal friend, daughter, auntie and sister.

Please give generously to help save her life by providing a proven effective treatment for her type of breast cancer. We cannot thank you enough for caring.
