“Supporting our family from New Zealand as we face an urgent overseas medical crisis involving a close loved one.”

Orakei, Auckland

Our family is facing a sudden and overwhelming medical crisis overseas involving a close loved one. Being so far away in New Zealand, we are struggling with the reality of distance at a time when family presence matters most.

This situation has come without warning and has placed significant emotional and financial strain on our family, as we try to support our children while navigating uncertainty and worry. The cost of urgent travel and practical support is more than we can manage on our own.

We are reaching out with humility and hope. Any contribution, no matter the size, will help us be there for family when it matters most. If you’re unable to donate, sharing this page is a powerful way to help.

Thank you for your aroha, kindness, and prayers during this incredibly difficult time.

Your aroha, support, and prayers will be held close by our family during this very difficult time.

Use of funds

Emergency travel (to United States, and to Kosovo), short-term accommodation, local transport, and essential living costs so we can be present with family during this crisis.

The saddest news ever 12 February 2026

With broken hearts, we share that our beloved brother and uncle has passed away.

We are devastated and deeply saddened that we missed the chance to be with him in his final moments.

We remain grateful for every prayer, message, and act of kindness shown to our family during this painful time. Your support means more than words can express as we now focus on being close to our loved ones and helping our daughters through this loss.

On average, fundraisers pay just 2% to use Givealittle. This is one of the lowest effective fees in New Zealand fundraising. We charge a 5% platform fee to cover the cost of running the platform. Because most donors choose to top up their donation to cover this fee, the effective cost paid by fundraisers is about 2%. That means around 98 cents of every dollar raised goes to the cause.
