Raising funds to cover the hospital and ICU costs of Salvador Vallejo, currently fighting prostate cancer complications in the Philippines

Auckland

Our Papa, Salvador Vallejo (known to many as Badong) is currently fighting for his life in the ICU at ACE Medical Centre in Mandaluyong, Philippines. Since 22 June 2026, he has been battling serious complications from prostate cancer, including kidney failure requiring emergency dialysis, a nephrostomy procedure, and is currently intubated in intensive care.

This is not Papa's first battle. Over the past two years, he has undergone multiple major operations and hospitalisations, each one taking a serious toll on his health and on our family's finances. As his family based in New Zealand, we have been doing everything we can to support him and the family in the Philippines through each of these difficult episodes. Sadly, the ongoing medical costs over these years have exhausted our personal savings, and we now find ourselves unable to cover the costs of this critical hospitalisation on our own.

Every dollar raised goes directly toward his mounting hospital and medical costs during this ICU stay. Papa Badong is a beloved father, grandfather, and friend to many. If you can spare anything at all, it would mean the world to our family during this incredibly difficult time. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. 🙏

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.
