My Name is Georgia, I am 25 years young living in Melbourne. I recently had a brain tumour removed from my hypothalamus and pituitary, which required massive surgery. My tumour was a craniopharyngioma (tongue twister I know). I am slowly on the mend and getting back to my daily routine. During this traumatic experience I felt grateful to have the support I had, during an unusual and trying time. It was out of the blue and left us thankful that we had support, which others’ may not have. To this end, I want to ‘pay it forward’, to help those who may not be as fortunate as I was.
I have a set a goal to raise at least $5k by my 26th birthday on December 7. I plan to have a number of fund raising efforts. My first event is to host my own trivia night. This is to be held on the 28th of June 2019, 7pm - 9:30pm in the CBD of Melbourne. I will be raising money for the Brain Foundation.
I hold this cause dear to my heart and hope that I can help make a difference. Funding for neurosurgery & endocrinology is always needed in the areas of research and patient welfare! I can’t thank enough the teams of people, staff and friends that helped me, so I am hoping my contribution will make some small difference.
Now that you have a little on my background…….I have set this page up for you to help me reach my goal. Every dollar counts. Big or small
I will continue to bake, holding events, movie nights/ girls night in etc. for friends, family and colleagues.
The Brain Foundation is a nationally registered charity dedicated to funding world-class research Australia-wide into neurological disorders, brain disease and brain injuries.
