Raising funds for Sarcoma Foundation NZ

My recent Lymphoma diagnosis came at the same time the world lost the beautiful Hugo Donaldson to Rhabdomyosarcoma. I am shaving my hair in a weeks time and I would like to raise some Awareness and funds for the Sarcoma Foundation NZ in his memory.

July is Sarcoma Awareness Month and many people have never heard of Sarcomas.

Cancer comes in all shapes and sizes, but what I've learned recently is that no matter the type or sub type, not matter how evil or angry it is, the light that shines through the cracks, in the form of kindness from those around us, is something Cancer can NEVER spoil or take away.

Thank you for your donation to Sarcoma Foundation NZ on behalf of myself, with permission and love from the wonderful Donaldson Family. Samantha, Aaron, Louis and of course, Hugo xxx

The big shave 18 July 2026

Hi everyone!

Today we had a small 2nd birthday party for our son with our immediate families. We decided to do the big shave at the end of the festivities! While I was worried about how he’d respond, he didn’t seem phased at all and when I was reading him his bedtime story he just looked up at me, rubbed my head and said “mumma. hair… nice!” 🥰😍

Thank you so much for all your donations! There are still a couple of days before the fundraiser closes so if you would like to share the link, any additional awareness and funds will be gratefully received by the Sarcoma Foundation.

Thank you again!

Lara
