Nurse in need

Waikato

Sarita is a loving Mum to two amazing kids, aged 10 and 13, a caring wife to Andy, a compassionate nurse who has spent her career caring for others.

At just 38, her life took a unexpected turn when she was diagnosed with aggressive melanoma. And needing Ipillimumab which is non-funded and requires this every three weeks.

Now, instead of being the one offering comfort and healing, she is facing the toughest battle of her life. Between treatments, appointments, and the emotional toll, another heavy layer of stress is the cost of on-going care.

If you are able to help support Sarita and Whanau - whether through a donation or by helping spread the word - it would mean the world.

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.
