Zoe-Lee Foundation
This foundation would like to partner with companies or individuals who would consider raising or donating £100 to help fund a reunion for a family in South Africa whose child is undergoing treatment for leukaemia. Many children are separated from their families for several months, sometimes for years following diagnosis.
Please find a link to the story in the P&J about a 10-year old girl who has helped the charity and similar publicity would be given to other individuals or companies who support us.
