Help me raise money to help people struggling with Angelman syndrome

Nationwide

Angelman syndrome is A genetic disorder causing developmental disabilities and nerve-related symptoms.

Angelman syndrome usually isn't detected until developmental delays become noticeable, usually when a baby is about six to 12 months old.

Symptoms include lack of crawling or babbling, minimal speech and frequent smiling and laughter. Inability to walk, move or balance well (ataxia) is also a symptom.

Treatment includes anti-seizure medication and therapies to help manage medical and developmental concerns.

This one is close to home as I’ve had family affected by this challenging disorder, so I want to do my part to help out.

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.
