Raising funds to bring home Jacob

Wellington, Kapiti Coast District

Jacob, Husband, Son & big brother to our Chennye Law of the Kapiti Coast suddenly passed away on the 4th Dec 2022. Jacob was in Korea pursuing his passion for acting and modelling when he unexpectantly died while undergoing heart surgery.

As you can imagine this has been a very difficult time for the Law whanau & my heart breaks for Chennye Law not only losing her mother in 1998 but also losing her older sister Tiana Law in 2010 & now her big brother Jacob. As they mourn their son, grandchild and brother I have put together this give a little page so that they can make the arrangements necessary on this end with as much ease as possible at this time of the year.

The Law whanau would love to bring Jacob home back to Aoteaora to give him a haeremate (funeral) & celebrate his amazing life.

Any koha given will go towards travel and ceremony costs for the whanau.

The Law whanau deeply appreciate any support of koha given, yet do understand this is a stressful and busy time for everyone before Christmas.

I am a close friend to the Law whanau & big sister to Chenyye Law

Use of funds

Travel costs to bring Jacob and his wife back to New Zealand

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.
