Silent and Frozen for MND

$360 of $1,000 goal
Given by 7 generous donors in around 6 months

MND kills over 100 NZers a year. 2 people are diagnosed every week. There is no treatment. There is no cure.

Wellington

On Friday 9 June I will be being painted from the waist up, and I will not talk for 7 hours.

Doing something like this will be empowering to appreciate the human body in all it's glory and recognise how lucky I am to be able to have full control of my body and what I do with it. People with MND are not able to feel shy, or ashamed. They have to be ok with other people dressing them, washing them and seeing them as they are. Silent and frozen inside a body that is letting them down more and more every day, while their mind is still alert.

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.
