Jordan M, In Memory of Nick

Jordan organised a fundraiser in memory of her beloved big brother, Nick. She set up an online fundraising page and did a collection at her workplace, including a raffle for a Lego voucher. Her brother Nick was a huge fan of Lego!

This are Jordan’s words: “Sorry, I’ve been MIA. It was very busy time for me!?

Fundraising is going so well online, and I increased my target from $700 to $1000, and at my workplace, I have a jar full of notes and coins that will be deposited at the end of the month!

I did a raffle for a $200 Lego voucher. Attached is a photo of my display at my workplace.

My brother Nick passed away from Stage 4 bowel cancer in 2018 at the age of 31. He absolutely loved Lego!!!

Each year, I try to raise funds and awareness because I would really love to make a difference and support other families who are experiencing the impact of bowel cancer. I hope that one day we live in a world where the testing age is lowered, and bowel cancer is easily treatable.” ~ Jordan.
