Support the Roland family through Vince’s terminal cancer

$6,052 of $10,000 goal
Given by 49 generous donors in 4 weeks

Help with funeral and living costs for Jan, Emily and Corin while Vince battles terminal cancer.

Auckland

This week Emily and her family, received the devastating news that Vince, who had been battling cancer for the last year, has exhausted all treatments and does not have long to live.

Their main focus now is making him as comfortable as possible at home and trying to enjoy their last moments together. As he is in hospice care and unable to eat, Emily and her family know they only have a few more days left together.

I created this page as a way for all of Emily's friends around the world to help ease the financial stress from the unexpected funeral costs that Emily, and her younger brother Corin, will be covering themselves.

Anyone that knows Emily, knows that she is always one to put others before herself and never expects anything in return.

Now it's our turn to help her.

Elyse Perry's involvement (page creator)

I have been lucky enough to be Emilys friend and known the Rolands for the last 15 years. I want to do everything I can to help support their family through Vinces terminal cancer.

Use of funds

All funds raised will be used to help cover unexpected funeral costs and expenses to support Jan and the Roland family during this terrible time.
