The Isaac Shenton Foundation

Set up in memory of our 5 year old son, Isaac Shenton, the Isaac Shenton Foundation aims to spread cheekiness and hopefully one day a cure.

Auckland

Isaac John Shenton was a kind, caring, funny little boy who changed the lives of all the people who knew him. He brought sunshine, laughter and cheekiness to people and in honour of Isaac's memory we want to help bring sunshine, laughter and cheekiness to others. Isaac is so much more than what happened to him, yes Cancer sucks, and yes, Cancer stole our son, but Isaac and his ideas and thoughts still live on in my husband and I - Isaac wanted to make the World a happier, nicer, friendlier place to live.

One day, in the not too distant future, you can join us in making the World a marble-lous place filled with fun, frivolity, fruit and lawn-mowing! ... and then sometime later, with lots of fingers crossed and scientific know-how the World will become a place where children no longer get sick from sucky cancer!

Yum yum in my tum!   15 April 2015

What better way to mark Isaac's anniversary than to see the start of our fortnightly fruit deliveries to the Parents Kitchen on the Oncology Ward at Starship Hospital.

We hope the parents and children enjoy the juicy, yummy, fruitiness for morning, afternoon tea or as a snack in the late evening.
