Dear friends, family, and kind-hearted supporters

We are reaching out today to ask for your support for Riley, a courageous 17-year-old who has recently been diagnosed with a brain tumor.

This devasting news has turned Riley's world upside down. At a time when he should be enjoying life as a teenager, spending time with friends, finishing his last year of school, playing soccer with Perth Glory under 18's and under 23's and looking forward to the future, Riley is now facing a battle that no young person should have to endure.

The journey ahead will involve specialist appointments, treatments, clinical trials possibly interstate and overseas.

Despite everything he is facing, Riley continues to show incredible strength, courage and determination. Those who know him know what a caring, genuine, and resilient young man he is, and now he needs your support more than ever.

We have created this fundraiser to help ease the financial burden on Riley's family so they can focus on what truly matters - his treatment, recovery, and spending precious time together.

Every contribution, no matter the size, will make a difference. If you're unable to donate, sharing Riley's story with your friends, family and community would mean so much.

Thank you for your kindness, generosity, and support during this incredibly difficult time. Together, we can help Riley and his family face this challenge knowing they are not alone and give Riley the opportunity to do things he loves with his family.

WHILST WE REALLY APPRECIATE EVERYONE'S SUPPORT, PLEASE RESPECT THE FAMILY'S PRIVACY IN THIS DIFFICULT TIME AND REFRAIN FROM CONTACTING THEM DIRECTLY AND PASS MESSAGES THROUGH THE FAMILY.

Please keep Riley in your thoughts and prayers as he begins this fight.

With gratitude,

Rileys family and friends
