Children and adults affected by mitochondrial disease often feel lost and isolated because so few people have heard of the disease. By making a donation of just £15 this Christmas, you can help The Lily Foundation provide support to the patients and their families impacted by this little-known but devastating condition.
Since 2007, when our founder Liz tragically lost her baby daughter Lily to mitochondrial disease, The Lily Foundation has become a beacon of support within the mito community. Your Christmas charity donation can ensure that we continue to provide support for those who need it most.
Donate today
Your generosity enables us to run events that make a real difference to those living with mitochondrial disease. Events like our Young Adult Support Weekend, where patients like James can form lifelong friendships with others who understand his condition, and find a place where he belongs. Events like our weekly virtual coffee mornings where patients find comfort and community – these crucial services exist because of donations like yours.
Because of you, we’re there for people like James, providing everything from practical advice and financial assistance to emotional support. The Lily Foundation are guiding patients through the challenges of living with mitochondrial disease, every step of the way.

Double the impact of your gift
For the first time ever, every donation to The Lily Foundation this Christmas will be doubled by a group of our generous supporters*, up to £1700! That means your gift can go twice as far in funding life-changing research and supporting those affected by mitochondrial disease.
Starting today, every £1 you donate will be matched at no extra cost to you! Imagine – just £15 from you means £30 for The Lily Foundation. Because of you, we’ll be able to make twice the impact on the lives of patients and families living with mitochondrial disease. Don’t miss out – donate today to double your gift and your difference.
Please note – only donations made through our Christmas JustGiving page will be matched, so please follow the link below to ensure your contribution is doubled. Match-funding will end once we reach our target.
Because of you, we can provide hope this Christmas, and beyond
When you donate just £15 to The Lily Foundation this Christmas, you’re helping to build a supportive community for people who often feel forgotten. Every donation, big or small, contributes to a future where mitochondrial disease patients have hope.
Because of you, no one has to face mito alone. Donate today to keep it that way.
