Help Hannah & Jesse Recover From a Devastating Fire

Glenorchy, Otago

On Wednesday April 15th, Hannah and Jesse lost everything when a fire destroyed their home — cherished belongings, important documents, and the sense of safety and stability a home provides. They now face immediate needs like temporary housing, clothing, food, and basic household items, plus the longer process of replacing essentials, restoring documents, and rebuilding their home. While insurance will cover some of their loss, they still face a long and uncertain road ahead.

Hannah and Jesse have worked tirelessly for year to build their future together, and have never relied on others for help. Now they face a moment of crisis, and we cannot let them face it alone.

Your donation, no matter the size, will help cover urgent costs and give them the support and hope they need to start over. Please give what you can to help Hannah and Jesse regain their footing and rebuild their lives.

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.
