Hi, I’m looking to raise over a £1000 for Finn’s Foundation, through sponsorship for in participating in the Cardiff Half Marathon.
The connection to the charity is though My sisters, partner Jack and his Family. Finn Jacks little brother On the 25th of July 2017, just three weeks before his 12th birthday, was diagnosed with Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma (DIPG) a brain tumour that is considered terminal on diagnosis. Sadly Finn passed away 20/7/2018, just six days short of a year since diagnosis and four weeks short of his 13th birthday.
Finn’s Foundation has been created to give cash grants to families of children with terminal illness or a life threatening disease to spend how they see fit – it could be a holiday, gifts for the child or just to take away some of the burden of financial worry that having a child diagnosed as terminally ill inevitably brings; leaving families to concentrate on the things that matter the most like creating memories and spending time with each other.
20% of all donations will go directly to DIPG research.
