Christchurch, Canterbury

Hi there everyone. This was unfortunately my close friend Shannon's home that was lost yesterday in a tragic house fire in papanui. 5 children and 3 adults live here and have lost absolutely everything. All they have now is the clothing they were wearing. I am starting a give a little and also posting in some groups for people to pass forward any clothing, blankets, food, anything at all that will help to get this family back on track. They deserve a good Christmas like the rest of us. This is the time of year for giving and gathering. I will try my best to help them. Any help would be much appreciated. I will put a link here as soon as possible. Thank you all. Also the family did not have any insurance sadly.
