Sparkle for research

Why

Why? 

About 18 months ago, my family was one of the 47 being told of a Myeloma diagnosis.
Two days ago, we were told that there was no more treatment available to treat my family member. 

We are now on care and comfort plan.
We have been told ‘sooner not later’ 

Myeloma is a rare blood cancer, it acts and reacts in different ways for different people. 

Raising more funds for research and development of treatment is something I can do. 

I’ve taken a stand against blood cancer.

I am fundraising to help the 47 Australians who will know that they have blood cancer by the end of today — and for the 47 families who will face the same devastating news tomorrow. 

I am fundraising because I am one of these families.

I have created this page to raise vital funds to help provide the special care that is needed to get families through a blood cancer diagnosis as well as to help fund more game-changing research into this disease. 

The money I raise will help provide care for those in need right now — and it will back the brightest researchers to continue uncovering faster diagnoses and better treatments to save lives. 

Please show me your support by donating to my fundraising campaign.
