Help me become a 'Skydiving Fairy' and raise funds to help Ella Fly to the States to Walk back on December 2nd!

Auckland

SkyDive Auckland is helping fundraise for my daughter Ella Yearbury.

Ella was born at 25 weeks, weighing 800 grams and was given a slim chance of never leaving hospital. She has life-long conditions; Cerebral Palsy, Hydrocephalus and Epilepsy. Ella has been accepted to undergo Selective Dorsal Rhizotomy (SDR) at St Louis Children's Hospital in America. Her surgeons believe that Ella will be able to walk with crutches and possibly independently – giving her a whole new quality of life.

Help me raise over $600 for Ella and I will do a tandem 13,000ft Skydive with Skydive Auckland.

Donations can be made to this Cause page.

Or,

Help us fundraise for this awesome cause and you could win a free tandem 13,000ft Skydive on us!

Every Fundraiser page that raises at least $600 for the Skydive Auckland page will receive a free tandem 13,000ft Skydive on us.

To create your Fundraiser page you will need to register on the Givealittle website first. Then, use the green 'HELP FUNDRAISE' button down the right-hand side panel of this page or use this link: https://my.givealittle.co.nz/pages/new/fundraiser/7082c569-7dd5-4c9d-917c-a7e700f3bab1

Skydive Auckland is based in Parakai, West Auckland. Free transport is available from Auckland City or it is an easy drive.

Because of restrictions in NZ, Funds will go to getting support with overseas medical expenses.

Ella's operation requires over $150,000NZD.

Kat and Brett Yearbury's involvement (page creator)

As Ella's Mum and Dad we are doing all we can to help her to have this surgery.

Mum has been working hard managing events, fundraisers, chocolate drives, social media marketing. Dad has been helping with the kids, wearing fairy wings and being generally awesome.

So we thought we would lead by example and take the HUGE leap that Ella has to make every single day... don some wings and throw Dad out of a plane!
