We recently had a very special visit to our office from Emma Williams from The Butcher, Baker, Great Coffee Maker and her son Harrison. The pair came in to present us with a cheque for $800 which they raised from a CCRF donation tin on their shop counter.
The Butcher, Baker, Great Coffee Maker is a friendly butcher shop located in Greenfields which also offers a range of amazing hot foods, cold rolls, sandwiches and barista made Gesha coffee. The store is run by Emma and her husband Andrew who have supported our Foundation since 2017.
Childhood cancer research is a cause close to Emma and Andrew’s heart, with their son Harrison a childhood cancer survivor himself. Harrison was diagnosed with neuroblastoma in February 2015 and went through a year of intense treatments and surgeries.
The family came close to financial ruin during the battle to save Harrison’s life, losing their business and life savings. Now, Harrison is cancer-free and the family have rebuilt their lives and their business.
We are thrilled to see this family now flourishing and we are so grateful for their continued support of our Foundation. Thank you to every single person who has visited The Butcher, Baker, Great Coffee Maker and contributed to their donation tin. We have now given them a new tin so if you’re in the area, we recommend popping by to meet the amazing family and show your support for the cause.
If you have a business and would like to help make a difference for children with cancer, get in contact with us today about hosting one of our donation tins! We also offer a way to accept electronic donations through a Quest Donation Point Tap. Simply give us a call on (08) 9363 7400 or send an email to [email protected] for more information.
