Thank you SO much 🥰💕💸
28 March 2022
I am so encouraged by your love and generosity! 🥰 We have now raised enough money to give holiday grants of $150 to twenty-four families facing an incurable ovarian cancer diagnosis. 2️⃣4️⃣ 🏡🏖️🥗 Holiday homes are already available to these families for free through TimeOut, but a cash gift to subsidize food or petrol will make this opportunity more accessible and more special to more families. That's a lot of precious whānau time you've made possible, and it means the world.
My shave is happening sometime in mid-May! Date to be confirmed: colleagues at the University of Auckland are helping me to organize a group 'fun-razor' event where students can join the effort to raise funds and awareness for ovarian cancer by shaving their heads too, so watch this space!!
Please keep having conversations with your friends and loved ones about ovarian cancer. By talking about the symptoms you can save precious lives and help #breakthebias surrounding women's health awareness.
So much love,
Catherine
