Telethon Star Surprise

At just five years old, Izzy has already shown more courage than most of us do in a lifetime.

Izzy was diagnosed with high-risk Neuroblastoma after her family noticed changes in her health. What followed was months of hospital stays, countless tests, and rounds of intense treatment including chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and stem-cell transplants. Through it all, she's remained her bright, bubbly self, lighting up every room she walks into with her love for dancing, unicorns, and princesses.

She adores Wednesday Addams, makes friends wherever she goes, and keeps her nurses smiling with her chatter and charm. Even during the toughest days, Izzy finds a way to laugh and dream.

When the Build Now Foundation heard Izzy's story, we knew we wanted to give her something special, a beautiful backyard she could safely explore and be creative in after her therapy sessions. A place where she could dance, play, and let her imagination run wild.

Thanks to our incredible partners and supporters, that dream became real. Izzy now has her own little world right outside her door, filled with colour, fun, and freedom.
