2026 Update
The incredible support of the Mister Zimi community continues to grow. Together, they have now raised more than $400,000 in memory of Sara and Alfie Chivers, helping fund vital brain cancer research and support programs for children and families facing brain cancer.
This year, Mister Zimi has once again partnered with the RCD Foundation to help change the odds for young people with brain cancer, including supporting our Connor's Run Matching Campaign.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------In March 2017 Sara Chivers received devastating news, her brain cancer had returned after eight years in remission. Not long after being told this, Sara and her family received the heartbreaking news that her 18-month old son, Alfie, also had an aggressive, unrelated and rare form of brain cancer. Sadly, Sara and Alfie both lost their battles with brain cancer in 2018.
The Chivers Family.
RESEARCH WE FUNDED IN ALFIE'S NAME
Sara was a Mister Zimi customer. After learning this and hearing about her story, the team at Mister Zimi wanted to help make a difference, and have since raised over $350,000 in memory of Sara and Alfie.
With the support of Mister Zimi and Alfie and Sara's families, we proudly funded the Alfie Chivers’ Project at Hudson Institute of Medical Research led by Dr. Gabrielle Bradshaw.
