When a Toko family were in need of support, the community did what they do best; they got together to help.
The result was a fun, family friendly cabaret evening, "Rave for Renee", which successfully raised nearly $4000 for 11-year-old Renee Eagar and her family.
The Eagar family were setting off to Houston, in the US, where Renee was to undergo stereotactic laser ablation brain surgery in the hope of removing part of a tumour on her brain.
"We wanted to do something to support the family, during their trip and after," says Nicky Macdonald-Wells, one of a group of "school mums" who banded together to help.
