Meet a little cancer warrior

 

Care for Cancer Foundation needs your support in assisting 7-year-old Baby Zaheer who is diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL), a type of cancer that affects the blood and bone marrow and requires intense and prolonged treatment. Zaheer has been undergoing treatment for the last 18 months which entails frequent hospitalisation, continuous chemotherapy cycles and endless lumbar punctures in his spine and thus the emotional and financial toll have become overwhelming for his family.

It is difficult to imagine the fear and uncertainty that Zaheer and his family are facing. A child at such a young age should be playing, laughing, and making memories with his friends and family, not fighting for his life. But despite these challenges, Zaheer remains strong and determined. Yet, despite their best efforts, they are struggling to keep up with the costs associated with Zaheer's care. They are in desperate need of financial assistance to cover the cost of medication, treatments and other related expenses like diapers, sanitary items and even healthy food.

With your help, we can provide Zaheer with the medical care, treatment, and support he needs to beat this disease and live a happy, healthy life. Think of the joy and hope that you could bring to a child like Zaheer, who is facing a battle that no child should ever have to face. With your generosity, you could make a lasting impact on his life.

100% of your donation will go directly to Baby Zaheer and his family.

Thank you for taking the time to consider this request. We would be happy to answer any questions or provide additional information about  how you can help Zaheer. Your donation is even tax deductible with SARS!

Every one rand counts in the fight against cancer! No amount is too big or small!

Zaheer is also verified Zakaatable.
