My Mum's Bucket List

$1,960 donated
Given by 50 generous donors in around 3 months

Our mum has been diagnosed with terminal bone cancer, and as a surprise to her, we are trying to raise money to take her on one last holiday

Auckland

My Mum has been diagnosed with Terminal bone Cancer.

She has always wanted to go to Paris but has never been able to go.

After battling breast cancer and getting her lymphoids removed she then went on to have a massive heart attack in 2014. And then got the news about the bone cancer on Christmas eve.

To make her last wishes come true I'd like to kindly ask for any donations to make this happen, even $1 would help.

Just to put a smile on her face would be priceless

This is supposed to be a surprise so if you know Leesa please do not tell her any info about this, thanks.

Update from Amber & Abigail  5 March 2015

Hi everyone,

We would just like to thank everyone for the generous donations you have all given! We was blown away by the support from everyone, so we can't say thanks enough.

We hoped it would be okay for our mum to fly, but unfortunately due to her heart problems she can't, and we are very sad we can't take her overseas. Instead, we've planned a road trip to Queenstown for us 3, also seeing family members along the way. With the money you all have donated, it'll be a lot easier to make this happen as well, and easier to go sooner rather than leave it too late.

We thought we would update you all on the changes as it is your donations, and see if you had any ideas to contribute to make this trip extra special.

Thank you everyone,

Abigail & Amber.

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.
