Keep sleeping babies safe

We lose far too many babies to Sudden Unexplained Death in Infancy. Pepi-pods help stop that.

Auckland

Sudden Unexplained Death in Infancy is a terrible thing for any new parent to have to survive. Pepi-pods keep baby safe and secure, and best of all, they are not a high-tech super-expensive solution. They are basically a plastic box - with bedding, and educational material about safe sleep. Each one costs about $120, but Middlemore can get through hundreds of them each year. Not surprising when there are roughly 8000 babies born each year in Counties Manukau.

Middlemore Foundation (closed)'s involvement (page creator)

The Middlemore Foundation has to go out and find the funding for as many Pepi-pods as possible each year, since there is no Government funding. We know it works, because our Sudden Unexplained Death in Infancy rates are falling.

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.
