Weʼve raised £5,000 to Help 9 year old Donte and his family in his fight against Hodgkin's Lymphoma.
- Eyam, Hope Valley, UK
- Funded on Saturday, 6th October 2018
Don't have time to donate right now?
Story
Donte is an amazing 9 year old who loves tractors and motorbikes. He is the son of my oldest and closest friend Nicola
Heartbreakingly he and his family's lives were shaken in an unthinkable manner when last week he was diagnosed with Hodgkin's Lymphoma.
In a whirlwind week he has already had an operation, many more tests and started an intense treatment regime.
No amount of money will make any of this go away but I hope it will help to make the journey a little easier and take some worry away from the family so they can concentrate on Donte and each other.
I know how kind hearted people are and want to help so please contribute whatever you can and know however small, your kindness and generosity is hugely appreciated.

6 years agoNicola and the boys have asked me to share a massive heartfelt thank you to everyone who came, supported, donated or got involved in any way in Friday's 'cut it short show support' at the Miners Arms. What a turnout and what wonderful community we live in. Donte's smile that lasted all night was what it was all about! I hope and pray that everything about Friday and everything yet to come, will help give him strength to kick this cancer's ass! xxx

6 years agoWow..it is absolutely amazing that we have exceeded our target! Massive thanks to everyone who has shared, donated and sent love and positivity! For those that aren't aware there is a 'cut it short to show support' event at The Miners Arms in Eyam at 6pm Friday 14th September where Donte, his brother Fabian and best friend Adey and other friends will be shaving their heads. There will be other hair cuts, temporary tattoos and glitter for anyone who wants to show support without going the full shave. Everyone welcome and hope to see you there! X
