Support my walk for kids facing cancer.

Hello. On August 25, 2023, my daughter was one of the 88 children diagnosed with cancer every month in Australia. Friends and community have supported us well and offered help. Our employers have also been kind. Even so, it was (is) like a massive, world-sized boulder was dropped on our lives out of nowhere. It can feel like everything is impossible. And other families are not as privileged as we are.

 

So this June, I’m raising funds for Redkite to provide emotional, financial and practical support and care to families facing childhood cancer. This is definitely out of my comfort zone. But it’s a sad reality that government doesn’t provide enough of those services, and it’s left to charities like Redkite to try and fill the gaps. We’d love it if you could join team ORLANDA in the Heartbreak to Hope Walk.

Families need all the support they can get. Here’s hoping, Carmen
