Charity Hero Spotlight: Kim Bennett

18 June 2018
Charity Hero Spotlight: Kim Bennett

Four years ago, I was diagnosed with breast cancer. I underwent surgery to remove the lump, followed by chemo and radiation therapy, just to make sure it was all gone for good.

I know how lucky I am to be able to celebrate four years since my surgery, unfortunately not everyone is as lucky as I have been. I was motivated to walk in the Auckland Marathon and raise money for NZ Breast Cancer Foundation because of a lovely lady who I met on my breast cancer journey. She was not as lucky as me and sadly, time is now running out for her. There isn’t anything I can do for her now, but she has motivated me to raise money so that we can kick this cancer thing in the butt.
