Building a safe house for my son Rawiri as he heals from trauma based mental health issues, towards supported independent living
Help me create a safe and nurturing home for my son and truly pave the way for a more compassionate and supportive world for mental health.
Whangarei, Northland
Hi I'm Clint. I write today with a heavy heart and a humble request for your support. As a father, I have been struggling to provide a safe and secure home for my son Rāwiri, who suffers from trauma-based mental disorders caused by my own marriage break up and, a traumatic assault put on my son by a gang of youth who viscously attacked him a year ago. This experience left my son unable to sleep normally and now has frequent nightmare's and flash backs amidst his struggles with anxiety, depression, delusions, and other psychological behaviors that make it challenging for him to now live a normal life.
My son's struggles are impacting others in the home causing fear and safety concerns. As a father, it's my responsibility to provide a safe and secure environment for my son however I cannot do this alone. I am pledging to exhaust all options I can, to build a safe home for my son, where he can feel safe, loved, protected, and supported. But I need your help. I am reaching out to you, in the spirit of giving and humility, to ask for your support for my cause.
It's ambitious but doable as we know, generosity goes a long way when helping to provide a safe and secure future for kids. I ask for any financial contributions you can offer, or that you share this page with others you know who may want to help?
I thank you for taking time to read this and to help make a difference in the life of a teen who deserves only honest love, care & compassion.
Sincerely,
Clint Edmonds, Rāwiri's dad❤️
