Make a difference for kids like Nevaeh

What was initially thought to be a urinary tract infection turned out to be something much worse for four-year-old Nevaeh.  

At just a few weeks old, a routine kidney ultrasound revealed a mass on her right adrenal gland. Scans and neuro and blood tests diagnosed Nevaeh with a type of cancer known as neuroblastoma, and her journey at Queensland Children’s Hospital began.  

The beginning of Nevaeh’s life revolved around hospital appointments and treatment – she was scheduled for surgery to remove the mass the day after her first birthday. 

But the Children’s Hospital Foundation programs and on-the-ground support helped make hospital feel a little more like home for Nevaeh.

"The Foundation has been amazing. The hospital can be such a cold, negative place. It's the little things that are just nice to put a smile on a kids’ face, even if it's only for five minutes."

- Bec, Nevaeh's mum

Your fundraising efforts will help create meaningful change for the thousands of sick and injured children that walk through the doors of Queensland Children's Hospital each day.
