Two-year-old Aneeva Albert-Ruffell helped set in motion a good cause yesterday when she contributed her handprints to the Child Cancer Foundation's fundraising programme.

The Wheels of Courage road trip features a Hyundai Santa Fe donated by the car manufacturer visiting up to 23 destinations over the next four months collecting the handprints of children with cancer.

Aneeva, from Ranui in Waitakere City, is a patient at the Starship, the first group to make their mark on the car.

More than 600 children supported by the foundation have been invited to leave their colourful handprints on the vehicle.
