In radio, The Edge’s Dom Harvey completed the seemingly impossible feat of running 5 Marathons in 5 Days to help raise money for Ka'iulani Forbes. Three-year-old Lani is currently receiving expensive cancer treatment totaling $260,000 in Barcelona in order to fight off neuroblastoma disease. It’s an incredible achievement by Dom who has raised more funds and awareness than he, The Edge and Lani’s family ever imagined. The total raised is now at $229,700 on the family’s Givealittle page, and on Friday morning, ANZ generously donated $50,000 to the cause - fittingly on Daffodil Day. A massive well done to Dom who put his body on the line, and best wishes to Lani and the Forbes family.
