Matthew's legacy of strength inspires family to fundraise

On the 22nd of June 2015, New South Wales teen Matthew Connolly lost his battle to Ewing's Sarcoma -  a rare adolescent bone and soft tissue cancer that he fought since 2012.

"He was a great son and an inspiration who never stopped smiling," Matthew's mother Megan Donald said in an article by The Daily Telegraph (click here to read).

Like many families who have lost a loved one, a fundraising page was set up to support Matthew's family with funeral expenses and a headstone in honour of the 16 year old. With nearly $5000 raised, the family expressed their sincere gratitude on Matthew's mycause page.
