Rachael sadly lost her life to brain cancer in 2014, at age 19.
In her honour, Rachael’s family and friends have been donating to the Foundation ever since, raising an incredible $25,000 so far for brain tumour research.
“Far too often we lose extraordinary young people to brain cancer. Rachael was one. She had so much to give as a daughter, friend, student and future counsellor. She never got to be a mum or a wife or develop her career. Brain cancer takes so much from us. The work for an urgently needed cure continues thanks to families like Rachael’s.”
