HARAOA ZL9HR DXpedition surplus Fuel raises $1,100 for NZ Child Cancer Foundation

I was very happy and proud that we had help the NZ Child Cancer Foundation after John and I made the decision to donate our remaining fuel and containers to Stephen who was the captain of our boat who donated them for auction which raised $1,100. A very big thank you to Stephen for his great work as Cancer has hit me very very hard on my return from zl9hr with my Father diagnosed with this terrible disease and we continue to care for him as he fights for life.

Ham radio is a hobby and people should never forget it.
