Mia Francis was admitted to the Royal Children’s Hospital at the age of three months.
After a full recovery, three years went by and her sister Hayley decided to draw pictures and sell them on the street to raise money for the Good Friday Appeal.

The girls spent all year on their artwork and managed to raise a whopping $1425 for the Good Friday Appeal.
The Ocean Grove family held a special day at their home on Good Friday for family and friends to purchase the artwork with raffles and a ’count the lolly jar’ also contributing to the final tally.
