Stand with Blake in his fight against Stage-4 Cancer — Urgent Treatment Needed

$62,948 of $60,000 goal
Given by 528 generous donors in 4 days

Blake (41) is fighting for his life with stage-4 cancer. Help him access treatment not funded in NZ and give him more time with family!

Manurewa, Auckland

Our brother Blake Wong-Ling (41) has spent his life lifting others—today we urgently need to lift him.

Only weeks ago Blake & his family were given devastating news: stage-4 gastric cancer now in his liver & lymph nodes. Without urgent immunotherapy, doctors say he may have weeks at worst, months at best.

Blake has begun chemotherapy at Auckland Hospital, but specialists say immunotherapy offers his best chance. Sadly it is not funded in NZ & must be accessed privately.

Insurance will cover $60,000, but his family must raise $55,000 more.

Blake carries heritage from Samoa, Niue, Tonga & China, with deep roots across the Pacific & Aotearoa. He is a loving husband to Leilana, a devoted son & brother, a proud cousin & the kind of uncle every child adores.

For decades Blake has been someone people turn to—mentoring young people, guiding families & walking beside communities through life’s sacred moments. Through The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints he served an honourable mission in Adelaide & later as Bishop in Ōtara, and as a celebrant & MC has helped many couples begin their married lives.

Blake & Leilana quietly show up when others need help. Asking for support does not come easily to them.

So today, we ask on their behalf.

Every donation will help Blake access treatment to give him more time with Leilana, his family & community.

Please help give Blake more time.

If you cannot donate, please share this page & keep Blake in prayer.

Fa’afetai tele lava for your love & support.

Teuila Benioni Bourke's involvement (page creator)

Leilana is our beloved first cousin and the eldest granddaughter in our family. Blake, her husband, is not just a cousin-in-law — he is truly our cousin in love. We’re organising this page as a family to support them during this incredibly difficult time.

Use of funds

Funds will help cover the cost of life-saving immunotherapy treatment for Blake, which is not funded in New Zealand. This treatment offers his best chance of slowing the cancer and giving him more precious time with his wife, family, and loved ones.
