Superhero Day - Fundraiser for Camp Quality - Copy

On Wednesday 4th June, students are invited to come dressed as a superhero, for a gold coin donation towards Camp Quality. When I was diagnosed with breast cancer two years ago, one of the most difficult things I had to do was tell my own children. They soon heard a whole lot of medical terms, that sometimes sounded scary. I tried to find books that might make this easier for children to understand, but unfortunately there were none that really worked. With this in mind, I wrote my own book, "The Superheroes of Cancer". 
Camp Quality will be publishing my story, and making it freely available through their services, for families affected by cancer. My hope is that it helps parents discuss the process of cancer treatment in a child friendly manner. It costs Camp Quality $3 per copy to print each book. The more money we raise, the more families can be given a book that will hopefully help in the tricky discussions around cancer.
Camp Quality's services and programs are made specifically to help children 0 -15 who are dealing with their own diagnosis, or the diagnosis of someone they love, like a brother, sister, mum or dad.
If you wish to donate more, any amount over $2 is tax deductible and can be made via the following link: Camp Quality Fundraiser
Many thanks,
Mrs Kate Frost
