Insight Endometriosis

  • Change lives for the cost of a coffee, a movie ticket or a bottle of wine

    We've launched an appeal for a car, to better enable us to change lives of local women, teen girls and their families and raise awareness at schools, church groups, community organisations and workplaces.

    We have secured most of the funds needed and seek community support for the balance. Please help us help others!

    Insight Endometriosis ensures women, teen girls and their families aren't left facing a significant health condition in isolation. Through community support, quality information and raised awareness, we have changed lives every day since 1999.

    Help change lives by supporting our appeal. Donations of $5 or more attract a tax credit, and as you know through Give-A-Little are fee-free, so every dollar you gift directly supports this cause.

    Thank so much for your help. Every dollar makes a difference.

    - Annette Evans

    Manager/Educator

  • Update for 02/12/2014

      2 December 2014

    Insight Endometriosis has joined the national movement #GivingTuesdayNZ which is being held throughout the country for the first time today. The day aims to encourage the wider community to help others as we head into Christmas. This time of year can be a sad reminder of fertility issues and relationship difficulties for women with endometriosis. Our services offer hope through community support and education. Our community work supports women to make informed decisions about treatment options and lifestyle changes, ensures that women and their families arenft left facing a significant health problem in isolation through our community support programmes, and reduces significant diagnostic delays by raising awareness. Endometriosis is a significant and common condition, which can dramatically impair quality of life. The most common symptom is period pain, characterised by taking pain relief, bed rest and time off work or studies. Endometriosis is also a leading cause of fertility problems. #GivingTuesdayNZ provides an opportunity to harness the collective power of charities, families, businesses and individuals, to transform how people think about, talk about and participate in what is traditionally the beginning of the giving season. This year we want to encourage people to think about and talk about endometriosis, and to recognise and support our work through a donation, to benefit local women and their families impacted by endometriosis. Letfs celebrate the season of giving by spending a day to give back. Giving Tuesday was launched in the USA in 2012 as a new national day of giving. This year the campaign has gone global. In addition to New Zealand, Giving Tuesday is taking place in the USA, Canada, Mexico and Australia, among other countries. In New Zealand, #GivingTuesdayNZ has been initiated by the Fundraising Institute of New Zealand, TechSoup New Zealand, Philanthropy New Zealand and Volunteering NZ. You can help us to help women of all ages through a gift today at Givelittle - it only takes a click! www.Givealittle.co.nz/org/InsightEndometriosis.
