Helping an amazing kid get through the worst time of his life.

Wellington, Masterton District

Saturday 23rd August 2025, George is airlifted from Wellington to Christchurch as he was diagnosed with leukemia.

We know George because he has been a friend with my son since they were 5, they are now both 12.

Georges mother has asked if we have an old laptop George can game on while in hospital, we do, however they are old and might not work properly for gaming.

We would like to buy George a new laptop to game on while in hospital and hence we have started this page.

George and his mother have been in our life for some years now, he comes over for weekends of gaming with our son and generally hangs out. I would really like to do something amazing for George as he is a great kid and makes me laugh.

It would be much appreciated if you could find in your heart to donate a little to this extremely amazing cause.
