Jill's Fundraising Journey (UK, 1160327) Browse events

YTD Raised: £0.00

Jill Goodrum, 46, was a wife, mother and grandmother who was diagnosed with breast cancer that had spread to her lymph nodes and liver; it was terminal. Her attitude was to not only fight the cancer but also to raise £10,000 to be shared between two charities. She also wished to raise awareness because if her diagnosis had come earlier, the outlook would have been very different. She achieved these aims through a Facebook page named Jill's Fundraising Journey (www.facebook.com/jillsfundraisingjourney). Devastatingly, Jill passed away on the 21st of May 2014, just 8 months after receiving the initial diagnosis. The £10,000 target was smashed nearly exactly a year to the day that Jill was diagnosed, just a few short months after her death. Jill left behind five children, Grace, 4, Amy, 8, Jemma, 20, Lyndsey, 27 and James, 29, as well as four grandchildren Elowen, 1, Sofia, 1, Amelie, 4 and Ella, 9. Her two eldest daughters have carried on her story, setting up Jill's Fundraising Journey as a charity in it's own right to continue raising awareness. They also wish to realise two of Jill's dreams through the charity, the first to have a book published of her journey, the second to open a holiday home for cancer sufferers and their families. Jill was made only too aware of how cancer does not only affect the person diagnosed, especially if there are young children in the family. Lyndsey and Jemma are extremely proud to now be able to offer the book of Jill's journey up for order. It is an emotional insight into cancer, the effects it has on a person's mental and physical state, as well as the effects of the family following the death of a loved one. It is 'the ugly truth of cancer'. All profits from the book, as well as other promotional items available on the fundraising page, go straight back into jfj with the aim of realising Jill's second dying wish. Jill's words: "Reach for the moon and dare to hope."

None shall be turned away is the pledge of LAMB hospital in rural North West Bangladesh.               We raise money for a poor fund so that no-one is turned away from treatment because of their poverty. It is well known locally that LAMB treats people first and deals with finance later, and so the poor come to LAMB. Every penny of donations received by LHCF goes to LAMB; as our small administrative costs are borne by our Trustees. The LAMB project runs a network of 25 clinics and safe delivery units, and a 150 bed hospital. They help an average of 460 outpatients a day. It also provides health care to the 1. 5 million poor in the surrounding villages, using more than 400 trained village health volunteers to raise awareness of how illness can be prevented. One of its proudest achievements is to decrease the number of mothers and children dying in childbirth to half the national level in this area, but there is much more to be done! In addition to clinical services LAMB’s work includes: community dvelopment; working to improve women’s rights and to reduce violence against women; training community midwives; and improving the health and education of children with disabilities.
