You gave this young family something truly priceless

Little Vinny came into the world happy and healthy.
He was everything Sally and Michael dreamed of.

Little Vinny came into the world happy and healthy. He was everything Sally and Michael dreamed of.

But at two months old, doctors discovered a tumour the size of a tennis ball in Vinny’s chest and their long journey with cancer began. Your support helped them through it.

When Sally and Michael had to stop work and move city to be with Vinny in hospital, you helped provide food vouchers and fuel vouchers. That support was about so much more than money. It took the pressure off the family and meant Sally and Michael could focus on what really mattered – being there for Vinny.

Today, Vinny is a healthy, cheeky, energetic toddler – and his parents couldn’t be more grateful.

“When people donate, they might not know just how big their impact is. Everything – especially the financial support – was such a huge help. Thank you!”

~ Sally, Vinny’s mum
