Family recovery fund urgently needed after blaze destroys family home

Dunedin, Otago

Hi! My name is Tania and I have set this page up to help my friend Grace and her family. On Sunday 25 January 2026 what should have been a pleasant afternoon with her babies turned into a nightmare that nobody should experience. Graces family home was burned down with extra sadness of losing their beloved family dog Sumo. Thankfully no humans were hurt physically and luckily they managed to save their other wee dog Nala and one of their wee cats. So now there are the costs of starting over for four children and herself. I know times are hard, so if you can help financially or even just by sharing this page around, The family would be ever so grateful. There were no insurance policies in place at the time. Much love

Grace is my dear friend.

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.
