    Kia ora,

    We want to again thank you all for the continued support shown through donations and kind messages for our friend Chelsey and her family.

    Whether you will be joining us in person, via the livestream, or in prayer on Tuesday to celebrate the lives of August, Hugo, and Goldie, we would love everyone to wear bright, cheerful colours. Wherever you are in the world, let’s make the day as full of light as they were.

      I can not even begin to imagine the depth of sorrow you are going through, know that so many people are praying for you to be held up and comforted at this incredibly sad time! All of New Zealand is standing with you and sending you so much love to comfort and surround you.

    It is with the deepest gratitude when we say Thank you/Kia Ora, Friends, Family and what feels like the whole of Aotearoa, New Zealand. For the outpour of such immediate generous financial support, the beautiful messages of love, thoughts and prayers, and the community spirit that you all have created for our friend. No amount of money will ever be enough to heal the wounds left in her heart and soul, but to have this safety net to rebuild her life, knowing what feels like the whole of Aotearoa is with her, and how you have all contributed to this outpouring of love in so many ways is more than we could’ve ever hoped for.
