Supporting Leo, 13, on his journey with rare glaucoma and helping him reach a vital summit this June.

Auckland

Leo lives with rare congenital glaucoma and Axenfeld-Rieger syndrome. He’s been through 50+ surgeries, including open-heart surgery — and last year, he lost vision in his left eye.

Now everything is focused on protecting the sight he has left.

Leo is funny, kind, and loves to perform. Even through everything, he continues to lift others and has shared his journey to help raise awareness for childhood glaucoma.

This June, Leo has the opportunity to attend a global glaucoma summit in San Francisco, connecting with world-leading specialists and families facing the same challenges — helping us understand every option to protect his remaining vision.

While there, we also hope to give Leo a special experience at Disneyland.

Alongside this, his family continues regular travel between Auckland and Wellington for surgeries and specialist care, which brings ongoing emotional and financial strain.

We’re so grateful to the 105 people who have already supported Leo.

Every donation or share truly makes a difference ❤️

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.
