“We’re still going through grief every day.”
Annabelle was just three years old when she was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer. Her parents, Kathie and Adam, were told she might only have nine months to live. Against all odds, Annabelle lived for two more years—years filled with love, laughter, and heartbreaking challenges.
During that time, Redkite was there. Thanks to generous donors like you, Kathie and Adam received financial assistance and practical support. They were able to stay by Annabelle’s side, create precious memories, and give her a final Christmas filled with joy and giving—just as she wanted.
Now, seven years later, Kathie still grieves every day. But she’s forever grateful for the kindness of strangers who helped her family hold on through the darkest days.
Please give today to help another family survive the trauma of losing a child to cancer.
Any donation before 31 December will be matched dollar for dollar by MPA, up to a total of $50,000
Your donation today will make twice the difference to families facing childhood cancer.
Thank You for Your Generosity!
We are incredibly grateful for your support, and we are thrilled to announce that the matched funding has now been exhausted. Your donation, along with those from other generous donors, has made a huge difference for children with cancer and their families.
Although the matched funds are no longer available, your contribution will continue to provide vital support for families in need. Thank you for helping us make a lasting impact.
