Everything Lost in a Devastating House Fire

$1,164 donated
Given by 16 generous donors in 14 hours

Raising funds to help my brother’s family after losing everything in a house fire, including essentials for their three children.

Invercargill, Southland

Last night, my brother and his family lost everything in a devastating house fire. In just a few moments, their home, clothes, furniture, kids’ belongings, and the little things that make a house feel safe and familiar were gone.

They are now trying to rebuild from nothing while caring for their three young children, including their youngest child who has special needs. Right now, they urgently need help replacing everyday essentials like clothing, shoes, bedding, toiletries, food, and basic items for the kids while they work out their next steps.

Anyone who knows them knows they are loving, hardworking parents who would never ask for help unless they truly needed it. I’m creating this page to help ease even a small part of the stress and heartbreak they are facing right now. They have insurance that will help replace some things but not everything.

Every donation, no matter how small, will go directly toward helping Devon and Eden replace essentials and support the children during this incredibly difficult time. If you’re unable to donate, sharing this page would mean just as much.

Thank you for helping this beautiful family begin to rebuild their lives ❤️

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.
