New Zealand’s Child Cancer Foundation is gearing up for its annual Wig Wednesday fundraiser in September, aiming to support children and families affected by cancer. The charity provides personalized support to every child diagnosed with cancer in Aotearoa, but relies entirely on public donations as it receives no government funding. Wig Wednesday encourages individuals and teams to host fun events to raise money during Childhood Cancer Awareness Month. Early sign-ups offer bonus entries into a prize draw, with increased fundraising correlating to more winning chances. For those unable to participate directly, donations are encouraged, with the Yondi Foundation promising to double the first $5,000 donated in July. More than three children are diagnosed with cancer each week in New Zealand, highlighting the crucial need for continued support. Further details and sign-up information are available online.
