He never stops smiling

$255 donated
Given by 8 generous donors in around 5 months

Happy and loving boy who deserves the world never let's anything bring him down

Manawatu-Wanganui, Horowhenua District

Hi all, this is my darling son Dexter, who not only has a heart condition called Wolff Parkinson white syndrome he also suffers with seizures. He can have good days where you would think he doesn't struggle, but other times he can just be so exhausted, he told me the other day he has a wish and that's to go up in a helicopter and fly around in the sky.....

Despite all this he never stops smiling and loves and adores people. Loves the fire service in our small town always wanting to show his support and love, enjoys school as well even though he gets tired quite fast as well. Since our last hospital stay, we have had results and he is needing further testing the 3rd time round so in the new year we will be back to Auckland. To find out weither surgery will be the next steps as well in his journey we are on.

Thank you for taking time to view our page.

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.
