Help Matt, Brooke and their two girl rebuild there lives

Matamata, Waikato

This morning, my phone rang, and my step sister Brooke's trembling voice delivered devastating news: their home was engulfed in flames in Matamata. With Matt,Brooke and their girls safe but reeling from the shock, they now face the daunting task of rebuilding their lives from the ground up. Luckily they have insurance but it won’t cover everything.

As a family, we immediately sprang into action, knowing we couldn't let them face this alone. We're rallying support through a give a little page, determined to provide them with the essentials and the hope they need to move forward. Every contribution, whether it's a donation, large or small, or a message of encouragement, means the world to them right now.

Let’s help Matt,Brooke and their children take the first steps toward rebuilding their home and their lives.
