Please help us

My name is Francess and I am a mother to a beautiful 2 year old girl called Zahra. This week has been a really horrible week for me and i feel as though this is my only option left.

I am currently the founder of a local community organisation called Make a difference Kapiti through Facebook and i have managed to provide help and support to many people on the Kapiti Coast and continue to do so everyday,

This involves receiving and giving donations of many different items to families that need it and sometimes i need to collect donations.

Due to an unfortunate situation this week i no longer have a vehicle or access to one which makes it harder to do what is needed of me in my community. This is hard for me to reach out to others but i do not see any other options for me.

On the 6th of July i had received a phone call from my landlord stating myself and daughter are soon to be out of housing on the 8th of August due to him wanting to put the house on the market. Also not having a car makes this hard for me to organise transport to house viewings

Unfortunately this only leaves us 4 weeks to find another house for us. Due to the property market rising this is going to be extremely difficult for us and i have used all my entitlement through to cover the bond for my current house.

I expect to get the majority of my bond back but sadly that wont be enough to cover the bond at the next property i manage to find/if i manage to find one in time. As i am looking at $350-$400pw for a 2 bedroom property.

So to wrap things up all in one week i have lost my car and my house, I have had amazing advice and support from my community but i am really needing some funding to help me and my daughter sort out this horrible situation we are in.

Once i have gotten another vehicle I will be able to continue to help my community a lot more then i can in my situation i am in at the moment. And will also help me and my daughter for transportation. in my current financial situation there is no way i could afford to do this.

I want to thank you all for taking the time to read this, if you are able to help us in anyway would be greatly appreciated as i know times are tough for many.

Francess and Zahra
