Tate Galante

Tate just turned 2, and every day is a fight to keep him healthy, safe, and give him the best possible start. He was born with Lesch-Nyhan syndrome, a rare and severe genetic condition that affects his ability to move, develop, and control his body. It also causes intense self-injurious behaviors that require constant, careful supervision.

He is covered by MassHealth, which has been essential. Even so, the level of support he needs goes beyond what insurance fully covers. Extra nursing hours, specialized therapies, adaptive equipment, and home modifications are often left to families to manage on their own.

We created this Help Hope Live campaign so the people who love Tate can help in a way that is both meaningful and responsible. Donations are tax-deductible, and the funds are held and administered by Help Hope Live. They pay verified medical and related expenses directly, which protects Tate’s eligibility for the benefits he relies on.

Your gift can help cover the care that makes the biggest difference right now: more consistent nursing support, therapies that help him grow and stay safer, and the equipment and home changes that let him live more comfortably with his family.

Thank you for standing with Tate. Every contribution brings real, practical help to a little boy who needs it more than most.
