Recipient story
12Yr Old having Cancer treatment and family trying to support financially
GIVIT
The family has experienced multiple significant challenges over the past year. Their 12-year-old daughter was diagnosed with leukaemia and is currently undergoing treatment.
In addition, her stepmother has a terminal cancer diagnosis and is unable to work. The father is the primary caregiver and is providing practical and emotional support to his partner, as well as caring for his daughter in treatment and her two siblings. Due to ongoing medical appointments, hospital admissions, and caregiving responsibilities, the family’s capacity to maintain stable employment and income has been significantly impacted.
Compounding these stressors, the family recently experienced flooding in their home after a neighbour left a bath running overnight. As a result, they were required to replace multiple items of furniture and children’s belongings, creating further unexpected financial strain.
