UPDATE: With heavy hearts, we share that Ina has passed away. 🤍

This Givealittle page will remain open to support her family with ongoing financial needs and funeral cost during this difficult time.

Thank you for your kindness, support, and for sharing.

We are reaching out with heavy hearts to ask for support for our beloved Ina, Mercedes Manahan, who is currently in the Intensive Care Unit after being diagnosed with Stevens-Johnson Syndrome, a rare and serious medical condition. Also, with kidney failure and lower albumin.

This has been a sudden and overwhelming time for our family. While we are staying strong for her and holding onto hope, the reality is that her critical medical care and related expenses are placing a significant financial strain on us.

Ina is the heart of our family — loving, selfless, and always the first to care for others. She has touched so many lives with her kindness and strength. Now it’s our turn to do everything we can for her. We want to focus on being by her side, supporting her healing, and making sure she receives the best care possible, without the constant stress of financial pressure.

If you’re able to give, no matter how small, it would mean more than we can express. If you can’t donate, sharing this page and keeping Ina in your thoughts and prayers would also mean the world to us.

Thank you for your kindness, love, and support during one of the most difficult times our family has faced.

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.
