Dancing with the Stars - Lorraine’s cancer crusade!

Lorraine Downes with dancing partner, Aaron Gilmore

Lorraine Downes, former Miss New Zealand and the only New Zealander to win Miss Universe, has chosen the Child Cancer Foundation as her charity to support on Dancing with the Stars.

Lorraine says "the Child Cancer Foundation does an incredible job supporting and helping the whole family, which to me is very important and worthwhile work for our community as a whole". Lorraine is mum to Hilton, 13 and Jasmine, eight, and feels blessed that her children have been healthy and she knows how lucky she is. "Dancing with the Stars has given me a chance to hopefully raise a substantial sum of money for the Child Cancer Foundation. What I can do to help I will".

Every time you vote for Lorraine, you benefit the Child Cancer Foundation. So, the more you vote for Lorraine, the longer she and dancing partner Aaron Gilmore stay in the show, and the more support you generate to help children on their journey with cancer.
