Jacob is Stronger than Cancer

Jacob, a student visa holder, now bravely battling cancer while his family faces emotional and financial hardship far from home and support.

Auckland

Our dear friend Jacob Mojica is a loving husband and a father of two to a 9 year old daughter and 5 year old son. They moved to New Zealand in February 2026 in the hopes of building a new better life for the family. He is currently on a student visa doing his Masters in Social Practice for 1.5 years.

But life took an unexpected turn when he was hospitalized on the 25th May 2026. Several scans were made and the doctors found out that he has a big mass in his colon and nodes all over his lungs. The doctor suspects cancer. He is currently admitted in North Shore hospital.

Instead of focusing on his studies and dreams, the family will now be facing different treatments, emotional stress, and overwhelming financial pressure far from home and family support. We are coming together to help ease the burden so Jacob can focus on what matters most — healing and recovery.

We are knocking on the door of your generous hearts if we could ask help for the hospital bills and incoming procedures the doctors are planning to make him live.

Every donation, no matter the size, will help with medical costs, daily living expenses, and support during this incredibly challenging journey. Please stand with Jacob and his family, share his story, and help bring hope, strength, and relief when he needs it most.

Thank you so much and God bless everyone.

2% Effective Fee
On average, fundraisers pay just 2% to use Givealittle. This is one of the lowest effective fees in New Zealand fundraising. We charge a 5% platform fee to cover the cost of running the platform. Because most donors choose to top up their donation to cover this fee, the effective cost paid by fundraisers is about 2%. That means around 98 cents of every dollar raised goes to the cause.
