    Hi, couple more pictures of our patient and his Dad at work - although his Dad lives and works looking after wildlife he earns only about 50 dollars a month.

  • need some reason to hope in Zimbabwe

      6 September 2020

    Zimbabwe continues to be in the news for all the wrong reasons, but here YOU can make it a lot better for a family there, for a five year old boy who needs a simple operation only, one that here in NZ we take for granted.

  • Dad sold his house for this

      26 August 2020

    Tekeshi (little boys dad) has sold a lot of what he owned he is so desperate, so he is trying desperately. Through donors incredible kindness for a child they have not and are unlikely to meet we are inching towards our target - it’s not nearly as much as some other appeals, and yes it’s for a little African boy in Zimbabwe but please care even a little

  • we're getting there very slowly... be kind

      18 August 2020

    We really do need to get these funds together before this poor child deteriorates. His family have managed to raise some funds too, and here in NZ we have received donations from several very kind people but have some way to go. Every little bit helps please.
