A better me for a better you.

Warm regards,

What is Sialidosis anyway?

Sialidosis is:

A rare genetic disease affecting normal nerve, muscle, vision, speech, and mobility function.

It gets worse over time, so in that way, it's like looks a little like Parkinson's or MS.

There is no generic treatment or cure... yet! – Although there is proven gene therapy ready for human trials that we are fundraising towards.

Visit www.CureSialidosis.org for more information.

Use of funds

Funds raised through the Raising the Bar challenge will be used to support the development and delivery of gene therapy for Sialidosis.

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.
