Raising money to support Sarah Barr to heal from cancer!
Hawke's Bay
In August this year, our beloved Sarah was diagnosed with stage 3 melanoma.
Devastatingly, this is the same cancer her Mum died of when she was young.
Sarah has already had surgery to remove the main melanoma from her right arm and the corresponding lymph nodes. The next stage and her best path towards healing is immunotherapy. This treatment can be lifesaving. Unfortunately, it is very costly and not funded in New Zealand.
We are hoping to raise the funds required to start the treatment urgently.
Sarah is someone who has faced more loss and setbacks in life than most. Some of you will know parts of her heartbreaking and inspiring story.
She is also someone who has positively touched the lives of so many people.
Sarah is a prominent member of Aotearoa’s pole dancing and aerial community, where she has created the most magical spaces of connection, art and empowerment as a studio owner, teacher, mentor and artist for over a decade.
Sarah and her husband Jack have had a tremendously tough financial year and don’t have a rainy day fund. Having lost both her parents in childhood, Sarah doesn’t have a familial safety net.
Sarah is an incredible Mumma to her two precious kids Emma (4) and Hugo (1). As someone who is always seeking to be of service to others, it’s really difficult for Sarah to receive help. But she wants to do everything she can to ensure her two gorgeous kids don’t grow up without a Mum as she did.
A big thank you in advance for your love and support!
I'm one of Sarah's besties.
