Dad lost his wife of 57 years and his belongings

Losing the love of your life and your belongings in one month

Rotorua, Bay Of Plenty

My parents have lived in New Zealand for 11 years and have always loved it here. Only 4 weeks ago, my father lost the love of his life of 57 years and is absolutely broken-hearted. To add to his pain, he got broken into yesterday while he was staying with me and my family and all his belongings were taken. He lost a chunk of his coin collection, put together painstakingly over 50 years, and even his tv got taken (his only distraction). He is about to leave New Zealand to return to Europe, and would so very much like to leave him with a good last memory of New Zealand, instead of this painful end to his time here. I am not looking for much, just enough to ease his trip back home to Europe.

Use of funds

The money will go towards his journey back to Europe and a new tv to use in the time before he leaves.

2% Effective Fee
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.
