Heartbroken Children - A Mum Trying To Help

$640 of $1,500 goal
Given by 9 generous donors in 5 weeks

Just want a small amount of relief for my beautiful children after losing their dad 💔

Nationwide

No teenager should have to face a life without a parent 🥺

These two young adults (18 and 20) have been and still are going through the hardest time of their lives, since tragically losing their dad last month.

They are such amazing young people and their dad would be so absolutely proud of them, how they have stuck together for support and especially how they have honoured him since his sudden passing. I'm so proud of them too and the strength they have shown through this horrific time.

I'd really really love to be able to help them out in some way, I know that they have both taken a lot of time off work this past month, and the last thing I want is for them to silently struggle (they would never ask for financial help themselves!)

I'm trying to plan a special weekend for them to come to Hawke's Bay and spend some time here with family however flights are so expensive (they are living in Christchurch) and due to other costs recently incurred it's unfortunately not possible for me to personally help with buying their tickets so, I'm very humbly asking for just a little help with getting my precious children to me for this time together, please.

If you can help in any way I'd be so grateful to be able to pass this on to them and ease just a little of their stress in an already very difficult time.

From the bottom of this Mama's heart thank you so much for any kindess toward my children, no matter how big or small ❤️

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.
