Help me help my Son.
Canterbury
Hi, I am Nicole.
Caleb is my 13yr old Son.
Caleb has unfortunately suffered some trauma and is struggling a wee bit with life. From this, Caleb is making some poor decisions and ending up in a bit of trouble and the best thing that has been offered for me to help him, because the last thing I want to do is put him in Oranga Tamariki care, is to put him into Waitaki Boys Hostel. Where he will have the male role models, Counseling and work with an organization called Thrive that helps kids in his position. He's really a loving boy but going down the wrong path in life because he just doesn't know how to deal with any of this. (And why would he, he's a child). I have applied for help from the Ministry of Education who have approved funding of $8,000 of the $13,600 yearly bill for Caleb to be in the Hostel. I have to come up with the other $5,600. So I am asking for help here. Anything will help and be greatly appreciated. Thank you for taking the time to read our story.
I am Caleb's Mum.
The money will go towards Waitaki Boys Hostel. However the amount is, will help in the fact that I will have less to pay off of the owing amount.
