Luke's Fight. Our Move
Luke's beaten cancer before. Now he needs our help to do it again. Every dollar raised funds the treatment that could save his life
Clarks Beach, Auckland
Luke has been here before. He faced cancer, fought it with everything he had, and came out the other side. His boys were there last time, watching their dad fight. His incredible wife was there every step of the way.
Now cancer is back. And Luke is doing what he does, facing it head on.
If you need to know the kind of man Luke is, consider this: he just threw his 40th and 300 people showed up. That's not luck. That's a life well lived and a community that loves him back hard.
He has two boys, aged 11 and 8, who need their dad around. And a wife who deserves to have her husband home and well.
The treatment
Luke's oncologist has prescribed two drugs. FOLFIRI is funded and covered. Bevacizumab is not funded by Pharmac, and it significantly increases his chances of survival. The full six-month course costs around $40,000.
The treatment plan is still curative. There is real hope here. But getting Luke through all 12 rounds takes a village.
Luke has enough to get started. He needs his community to help him finish.
Every dollar raised goes directly toward Bevacizumab. Whether it's $20 or $200, you are helping Luke get back to the life he is fighting for.
Three hundred people showed up for his 40th. Imagine what we can do now.
Your A Team's involvement (page creator)
Luke and I became friends when our boys started school together in 2022. They've been teammates on the rugby field ever since. Luke and Cush are those people who show up for everyone. This is us showing up for them.
Use of funds
Every dollar raised goes toward Bevacizumab, the unfunded drug that significantly increases Luke's chances of survival. If we don't reach the full goal, every cent raised still goes directly toward his treatment and reducing the financial pressure on his family.
