Tara Needs Our Help

$8,626 of $80,000 goal
Given by 67 generous donors in around 10 months

Tara our amazingly strong solo mum of three (20,19 and just 10 years old) needs our help with cancer treatment.

Auckland

Our dear friend Tara has been battling a rare form of breast cancer for the past 2.5 years. Unfortunately the cancer has spread to her bones (spine, pelvis, ribs and femur), stomach and brain. Those that know Tara know how fiercely strong and independent she is but we now need your help.

Tara is currently bedridden for most of the day and requires treatment to help ease her pain and nausea so that she can improve her quality of life in these final stages.

There is a treatment available that could help ease Tara’s symptoms but unfortunately it comes with a hefty price tag ($80,000).

We would appreciate your help in raising funds so any amount of money that you are able to donate would be greatly appreciated by Tara and her family and friends. Money raised will be used solely for her treatment but if there is anything left over it will go towards medical equipment required to make her day to day life more comfortable. Thank you so much in advance for your help 💗

Use of funds

Funds go to immunotherapy treatment (Penbrolizumab also known as Keytruda) that is currently not funded - $80,000 required.
