Hi guys! I'll keep this short for the brainfogged among us (myself included)!
I'm humbly asking the Pheonix Rising community for their help in ME/CFS Support (Auckland) Inc's campaign to raise funds for a field worker. Anything you can do, even simply 'liking' our Facebook page, would be really awesome and go a long way towards helping the 6,000+ ME/CFS sufferers in our area.

Our cause
- I'm based here in little old New Zealand. I'm working with a local charity, called ME/CFS Support (Auckland) Inc., to raise funds for a field worker.
- There are a number of field workers active in New Zealand however none cover our largest city, Auckland.
- Around 1/3 of our population resides in Auckland and there are 6,000+ ME/CFS sufferers
- I'd like to reach out to the Pheonix Rising community and humbly ask for your help
- We are seeking donations towards the US$26,500 annual salary for a fieldworker
- If you are in a position to make a donation, that would be awesome! No donation is too small. Every dollar counts and will help us in our goal. Please see the link to our fundraising page below
- But I suspect most with ME aren't and there are other ways you can support our cause
- Simply 'liking' our Facebook page or sharing with friends would go a long way towards raising awareness and helping our campaign. Facebook page below
- Field workers in other cities help ME/CFS sufferers immeasurably! Imagine if you had someone who advocates for you, helped you gain access to all the disability and financial support services available, got you to local support group meetings, and more. This is what we are aiming for in Auckland
- We established our charity to hire a field worker. The board has a good mix of ME/CFS people, to represent the interests of sufferers, and healthy professionals, to help us reach our goal. They are a great team.
Please support us by:
- Giving to our donation page
- Liking and/or sharing our Facebook page
Thank you
