Tena koe Jessica,

I am unable to make a financial donation, but I do have household items that I'm happy to donate to your whanau.

Please advise where I can drop off when time and day suits.

Hello,

I heard about the fire and I am sorry that it happened. My uncle is one of the firemen who tried to save the house.

I do not have a lot of money for a donation, but would like to help out with material goods if possible. What kinds of things do you need most?

We have some stuff here like kitchen supplies, bedding etc. Would you like this stuff? If so, where do we deliver?

What gender and sizes are you needing for clothes? No guarantees that we can help here, but may be able to.

Wishing your family well.

Kia kaha

Jessica

Hi Aleysha, thank you so much for the message I really appreciate it and please tell your dad thank you so much for his and the teams effort, I’m sure his job isn’t easy.

At this stage we are still not sure what items we need. Waiting to hear about a house but hopefully will know more Monday. If you don’t mind I can reach out to you later in the week to see if there is anything you can help with?

As for clothes we have had a lot of donations already so I think they might be OK on that front.

Again thank you so much for the message. We feel very blessed to be surrounded by an amazing community. It has been tough but the support and messages are really helping.

Xx
