Some of you may know our beautiful cousin, Kymm Grotto, who lives here in Echuca, who has recently received the heartbreaking news that she has multiple brain tumours. Her only hope is a life-saving surgery that can’t be performed here in Australia. Instead, she must travel to China to be treated by Prof Charlie Teo a specialist doctor who has given her a fighting chance.
The cost of this surgery and travel is significant, and as a family we are rallying together to do everything we can to help her. Our wonderful local community is stepping up too – with The Caledonian Hotel hosting a fundraising event to support Kymm and her journey to recovery.
We would love to see as many familiar faces there as possible. If you can’t attend but still wish to help, there are two ways you can donate:
👉 Directly through the official GoFundMe link here: https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-kymm-grotto-reclaim-her-life?attribution_id=sl:1e5f3d67-b23d-469f-a70f-20bc9242dcc4&lang=en_AU&ts=1754033352&utm_campaign=fp_sharesheet&utm_content=amp13_c&utm_medium=customer&utm_source=copy_link

👉 In person at our reception, where we have a donation tin set up – 100% of contributions will go straight towards Kymm’s surgery fund.
Every dollar, every share, and every show of support will make a world of difference to Kymm and her family during this incredibly difficult time.
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for standing with us. Together, we can help give Kymm the chance at life she deserves. 💙
