Help grant Phoebe’s wish this Christmas
Today a Kiwi child will be diagnosed with a life-changing illness – we can’t change that, but with support from generous people like you, we can grant them a wish to bring respite from relentless illness.
Children like Phoebe (15) who was forced to quit her passion of dancing due to exhausting Wilm’s tumour treatments. Phoebe’s wish is to feel like a millionaire for a day. This wish will give her the stardom she’s only ever felt on stage before that Wilm’s tumour took from her.
