Supporting the Snow family during Jackson’s fight to kick cancer

Geraldine, Canterbury

Join us in supporting Jackson Snow and his family Amy, Gideon, Gracie and Summer, as they navigate through the challenges of stage 4 Hodgkin's lymphoma. Jackson is an incredible young man (14) who begrudgingly saw his GP for a stubborn cold in April, which escalated immediately to a transfer to chch and devastating diagnosis.

With their bathroom gutted, they urgently need our help to install a hygienic space for Jackson's comfort and well-being. Your donation will make a tangible difference in their daily lives as they focus on Jackson's health journey.

Together, we can bring comfort and relief to this brave family during this difficult time. As Jackson undergoes treatment, the family faces the burden of travel and living costs while being away from home and work.

Your contribution will alleviate the financial strain, allowing them to focus on Jackson's recovery and support their family without the worry of financial stress. Every donation counts in supporting this resilient family during their journey towards healing. As we all know, this family continuously make positive contributions to their communities and although they are reserved about asking for help, I know many of you are wanting to do your bit for them in their time of need.

From Jackson’s dad Gideon   8 May 2024

Amy, Jackson, Gracie, Summer and I would like to express our sincerest gratitude for what has been an overwhelming response of aroha and tautoko/support in light of Jackson’s diagnosis. From our whanau and friends, to acquaintances and members of the community and those further abroad supporting us through messages of love, offerings of Kai, transport, and donations of time and money has TRULY blown us away.

We are so proud of our son Jackson as he has been nothing but noble in the face of this life changing diagnosis and subsequent treatment plan. He asks questions of the doctors that mum and dad miss, he reads all the information provided by the doctors and he brings mum and dad down from spiralling at times with his sage advice, “dad we can’t look too far ahead and just take it one day at a time”. We are also very proud of our daughters Gracie and Summer who are holding down the fort at home while we are based in Christchurch.

As for Jackson, he has started his chemotherapy as of Monday and so far he has responded well. We have a long road ahead with many hurdles to overcome but with his positive attitude and the support of our whanau, friends and community we will overcome this.

Once again, thank you to everyone who has messaged, offered time and donations, those who have cooked kai for us and those who have prayed for Jackson, we are so grateful to you all ❤️

Arohanui to you all,

The Snows.
