Surgery booked!  18 March 2014

Hello to all our wonderful family and friends. Incredibly, we are very close to reaching our target of $50,000 for Lily's second cochlear implant. Which means, we are very happy to say, that we can now stop fundraising. We had no idea that this would happen so quickly and it would not have been possible without our fantastic family, friends and community. Lily is booked in for surgery 20th of May this year! We've been overwhelmed by the generosity and support shown and would like to thank each and every one of you from the bottom of our hearts. To know that Lily has so much support out there is A M A Z I N G!! Kate and Russell

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.
