Fundraising for my sister Adele who is struggling with health issues and now has suffered a massive burglary.

Thames, Waikato

In 1963 I was adopted.In 1994 I found my family.My mum is bi polar like me as is my sister.My sister grew up with 3 sisters and a brother.But others were adopted out like me.My sister suffers anxiety and depression but was working up until her cancer diagnosis about 4 months ago.My sister Adele has cervical cancer.She was healthy but now all of a sudden she's having chemo and radiation therapy.Everything is scarey and unfamiliar.Her stress levels skyrocketed. While in respite care trying to recover, her house that she has lived in for 28 years was broken into and they stole everything my sister owns, unfortunately there was no insurance, Its devastating.My 86 year old mother who has her own health issues was struggling to cope with all my sisters hospital appointments and trying to get my sister into a smaller Kainga Ora unit as her place is too big. . The money raised will help my sister start over and help my mum with ongoing costs of my sisters healthcare.This is the only picture I have of her as we didnt grow up together.I care about her very much because she's so much like me.

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.
