Raphael was hit by two vehicles and is in critical condition. Help his family stay by his side through his long recovery. Every bit helps.
Whakatane, Bay Of Plenty
On August 18, 2024, Raphael, a young man with a bright future ahead of him, was involved in a horrific accident when he was struck by two vehicles, one of which cruelly fled the scene. He is currently in critical condition, battling life-threatening injuries, including multiple broken bones, a brain bleed, and severe damage to his liver and kidneys.
Raphael has a long, uncertain road to recovery ahead. While ACC will provide some financial support, his family is doing everything possible to be by his side during this difficult time. With extensive medical treatments, surgeries, and rehabilitation in his future, the family needs support to help cover the costs of living near the hospital, transportation, and everyday expenses so they can focus on being there for him.
We are reaching out to you, our community, to help ease the burden on Raphael and his family during this unimaginable time. Any contribution—whether financial, sharing this page, or sending words of encouragement—will make a difference.
Thank you for helping us support Raphael on his journey to recovery.
