3. Saving Eliza
Raised: $2.05 million
Eliza is a little girl diagnosed with Sanfilippo Syndrom, a disease that causes severe dementia and problems with motor skills. In despair, her parents decided to ask for donations on GoFundMe, so they would be able to finance her treatment. The world responded and Eliza was the first child to receive a new experimental treatment. The goal of the campaign expanded, now collecting the funds to help other children with the same disease.
