Swing for Hugo

“Swing for Hugo”, uniting people to help 11-year-old Hugo Donaldson access life-saving cancer treatment overseas.

Beachlands, Auckland

Event: Swing for Hugo – Fundraiser for Hugo Donaldson

Date: Sunday, 7 December, from 1pm

Venue: The Range 24/7 Indoor Golf, 981 Mount Eden Road, Three Kings

Goal: Raise $10,000 towards Hugo’s overseas treatment and family support.

Hugo is an 11-year-old boy bravely fighting stage 4 Alveolar Rhabdomyosarcoma. After exhausting local options, he’s been accepted into a CAR T-cell trial at Texas Children’s Hospital. While the treatment is free, associated costs total around $500,000 NZD. His family is doing everything they can, but they need community support to make this possible.

The event includes a 9-hole “Beat the Pro” challenge, mini-games, a silent auction, and food and drinks throughout the day. All proceeds go directly to Hugo’s Givealittle page. Live updates will be shared on Instagram to keep the community involved.
