  • ACC contribution

      31 January 2020

    Vinnie’s body was found on the Sunday, he went missing on the Thursday. His funeral was held in Dunedin yesterday 30/ 1/ 20. Michaelas accident happened in Christchurch 6 yrs ago today (31/1). The administrators of the give a little page have naturally asked for all facts to be transparent so donators to the page are fully informed and Michaela and I fully support this. ACC and WINZ provide an income for Michaela and she was paid a contribution 4 years after her accident. This money was paid to cover her son Vinnie’s funeral. No other contributions were offered to Michaela at that time. However, we understand that at this time there may be a chance that Michaela receives some contribution from ACC for the funeral but to date Michaela has fully paid personally nearly $14,000 for her own sons funeral. Thank you from our hearts for all contributors so far and what may possibly be given in the future either from family, friends or strangers.
