A safe healthy house needed urgently.

$300 donated
Given by 9 generous donors in one year

No-one should live in a dangerous, unhealthy home - please help Amy and Leslie find a safe and healthy place for their family.

Marton, Manawatu-Wanganui

Leslie and Amy want what all parents want, a safe and healthy home for their daughter. What they have instead, is a mould infested rental, with leaks, faulty smoke alarms and air quality so bad that the couple and their 3 year old have had to move into a tent in the garden. Amy and Les are people who would do anything for anyone. They are incredibly hard-working, both working grow their businesses; leather crafting and incredible Kiwi made apothecary supplies, as well as raise their gorgeous free-spirit child. They thought they were moving into a safe home with a garden for their daughter and it's turned into a living nightmare. Amy and her daughter have both been hospitalised with breathing difficulties, they have had to throw away many of their possessions due to damp and mould, and they are now forced to live in a tent. Please give what you can to help this beautiful family have what they deserve - a safe and healthy home.

Use of funds

Hi Jeff, thank you so much!! It’s so heartening to see people respond to this, it’s so hard for Les and Amy to ask for money themselves, which is why I’ve set this page up. You are a star!!! Gabrielle
