Tribute to Nellie
Nellie Panay was a loyal and generous supporter of the Scaffidi Foundation. She shared her networks and her support from the moment she was introduced to the Foundation until shortly before her passing. Nellie lost her battle with cancer in early 2008.
She will remain forever in our hearts. We aim to share ‘Nellie’s gift’ – her spirit, passion and kindness – with the families we support.

Jess, age 9, was first diagnosed with cancer when she was 3.5 years old. She has had a kidney tumour, four brain tumours and has undergone regular radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Shortly after meeting Jess, Angela from the Scaffidi Foundation made a deal with her; if she was brave enough to go through with her treatment, Angela would dye her hair hot pink, Jess’ favourite colour.
