Shaving my head to support our dear friend Ruth in her battle with cancer. Please donate to get her the treatment she needs!

Wellington

Our dear friend Ruth is battling Cancer, and is relying on an unfunded treatment to buy her more time with her loved ones.

I am shaving my head in solidarity with her, and using the opportunity to raise some funds to support access to this treatment. Please consider donating, even the prices of a coffee - a little goes a long way!

Liss Bailey's involvement (page creator)

I am lucky, along with many, to call Ruth a friend.

Use of funds

All proceeds will go towards the cost of unfunded treatment, pembrolizumab Immunotherapy.

We did it! 🥳🥳

We made it to $1000 toward our friend Ruth’s treatment - and we have you to thank dearly for it. Tune in on September 1st for Liam and I to shave our heads for the cause (hoping our pēpi doesn’t object too hard 😅)

Nui te aroha e te hapori! Please keep sharing when and where you can, the fundraiser is still live for a month and every bit counts :)

(Feel free to invoice me for the lock of hair you’re owed if you donated $50 or more - just no cloning or weird stuff pls)

Ngā mihi mahana xx

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.
