A Duncan teen will be able to see her dream artist perform in Vancouver thanks to an Island foundation. 

The “Help Fill a Dream” foundation will send 18-year-old Kayla Dosen to Vancouver on December 7th to see Taylor Swift’s record-breaking Eras tour. 

Kayla was diagnosed with a rare pediatric cancer called Chronic Myeloid Leukemia and Swift’s music has served as a constant source of comfort, hope, and inspiration for her. 

“The strength, resilience, and joy she has shown are truly inspiring, and we’re excited to play a small part in making this incredible experience happen for her,” says Craig Smith Executive Director of Help Fill a Dream.
