From Thailand to SYD/AU

Auckland

*UPDATE*

Kia Ora Whānau,

My brother has had an MRI scan which has revealed a benign tumor, the size of an egg on his left frontal lobe. Fortunately he is stable enough to recover at home (Thailand) on antibiotics and will be given a ‘fit to fly’ clearance on the 20th of March (this week) to go back to Sydney for surgery.

Thankfully, this has lowered the expected medical costs right down and we are only looking to fundraise to cover the cost of surgery which will sit somewhere around $1500 AUD.

Thanks again whānau and friends for your ongoing love, support and prayers for Chuck.

Love from, The Wade Family.

On average, fundraisers pay just 2% to use Givealittle. This is one of the lowest effective fees in New Zealand fundraising. We charge a 5% platform fee to cover the cost of running the platform. Because most donors choose to top up their donation to cover this fee, the effective cost paid by fundraisers is about 2%. That means around 98 cents of every dollar raised goes to the cause.
