Ambrose Family Financial Relief Fund

In November 2018, Jared Ambrose contracted Meningitis and had a lumbar puncture to test for the infection. Unfortunately the procedure damaged nerves in his lower back and is unable to walk or sit for any length of time to the point that now he is hospitalised as he is losing control of his leg. We are trusting this is just temporary.

Jared has 5 boys aged 4-10 yrs and a lovely wife Liz, and he will be incredibly frustrated to not be able to be there for them, not to mention the chronic pain he is experiencing which takes its toll mentally also.

The income received from ACC and Working for Families is not enough to fund the basic living expenses for Jared's large family. To expect a family of 6 to budget just $150 a week for food and not enough left for any other extras that come along like car maintenance, presents for birthdays etc is a tough ask, which is why I'm asking you good people to dig deep for Jared and his family to help lighten the burden they will be feeling, going backwards several hundred dollars per week.

Jared is an honest hard working guy, and goes out of his way for others as he did for me. Believe me he would rather be at work rather than lying in a hospital bed. This is my way of trying to help him and his family as the treatment injury he received was a curve ball from no where and they really need our support.
