Give a little to help Kerry's fight for life

Tauranga, Bay Of Plenty

Kerry and her whanau are facing the most challenging battle of her life—stage four cancer. She and her partner Gabe have always been pillars of strength, not only lifting themselves up but also helping countless families along the way. They’ve never hesitated to support others, but now they need your help.

As a deeply private person, she has reluctantly allowed us to share their story. Sadly, Kerry has been told that hospital treatments are no longer effective. Her hope now rests on alternative 3 weekly treatments of Keytruda, but it comes at a price of $10,200 per session, Gabe and Kerry have covered these costs to date.

Kerry and Gabe would never ask for help themselves; that is not who they are. This forum was created for those who know and love them for the opportunity to give back.

There’s absolutely no obligation. Every donation, no matter the size, will go directly toward Kerry and providing her the chance to spend more precious time with her loved ones.
