Our school community has always shown incredible kindness when one of our own needs support, and today we're reaching out on behalf of a local family facing an unimaginable challenge.
Benowa State School mum, Jacinta Rogers, whose two children attend our school, is currently battling Stage 4 ovarian cancer. Jacinta's cancer is extremely aggressive, and her family is navigating an incredibly difficult time.
An urgent fundraiser, "CanapΓ©s for a Cause β Help Jacinta," is being held this week to help raise funds for Jacinta's treatment.
The organisers are seeking support from our wider school community through:
β¨ Sponsorship contributions
β¨ Donations of raffle prizes or family hampers
β¨ Support from local businesses
β¨ Sharing this fundraiser with friends, family and colleagues
No contribution is too small. Every donation, sponsorship, or share helps provide much-needed support and hope for Jacinta and her children.
If you or your business are able to help, or would simply like to learn more, please contact:
