Rs 106,225 Raised

Maretha Hill has a dream of climbing Mount Kilimanjaro to raise awareness and funds for CANCER patients.

She is a hill-seeker, a mother of 3 (Kelly 26, Gareth 18 and Joshua-Aaron 5), she was listed among the top10 female trail runners in Mauritius for 2020, even though she could only participate up until June.  She is Fierce. She is determent.  She is a WARRIOR!

Her dream to climb the highest mountain in Africa is still part of who she is, even though she faces the toughest climb of her life-journey

During August 2020 at the age of 46 Maretha was diagnosed with Grade 4 Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM), a fast-growing type of tumour in the brain.  She underwent her first surgery in Cape Town followed by deep radiation. 

During August 2021 she suffered a set back and had to undergo a 2nd surgery followed by aggressive chemotherapy.

Recently she has been in and out of ICU due to ongoing seizures after the detection of a large mass tumour on her periphery.

She has been hospitalized twice over the past month for recurring issues and blood clots.
Her Medical Cover, up to a mere Rs500 000 limit, completely exhausted after her 2nd operation.
In addition, medical bills in excess of Rs500 000 paid out of the family-pockets. Leaving her family in dire need of financial assistance to pay her past medical bills, cover future treatment expense and nursing assistance at home.

Please open your heart to help us in moving this mountain, one small stone at a time, for Maretha and her family!
