Fight for Carlo

Helping our whānau give our boy the strength he needs to win his fight for life.

Canterbury

In February 2021, at just 9 years old Carlo was diagnosed with B-Cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia (ALL).

Life as we knew it has changed forever - our lives have been flipped upside down and inside out!

His courage and strength has saved us time and time again. He has a smile that needs to continue to light up the room and a laugh that sings to everyone's song.

Carlo reminds us to never give up and he deserves the chance to fulfil his dreams and have the future he is fighting to be a part of!

The fight we are all backing him in is a 2.5-year treatment plan of Chemotherapy.

Kylie-Jane O'Hara-Phillips' involvement (page creator)

I have known Carlo's whānau all my life. We were raised on the same street in Aranui, we grew up with a sense of community that meant there was nothing we wouldn't do for each other.

Use of funds

Carlos mum raises two children on her own. All funds will go to keeping up the basic needs of the whānau, any medical costs that are not covered by the Public Health System, and support his wish list.

2% Effective Fee
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.
