Help reunite Chloe, Brandon and Zion
I have set up this page to help raise funds to reunite Brandon, Chloe and their 7-month old son, Zion.
Waiheke Island, Auckland
Brandon, Chloe and Zion were living in Cairns, Australia and made the exciting decision to move back home to NZ to live close to Chloe's family. Brandon is from Papua New Guinea. The young, new parents worked hard to save for Visa costs for Brandon, and costs associated with relocating to a new country.
Unfortunately, Brandon was given the wrong immigration advice by an Australian immigration advisor, costing the family $6,000 for a visa that wasn't valid. This led to a heartbreaking situation at Melbourne airport, Brandon was left stranded in Australia, while Chloe and Zion had to travel to NZ alone.
Now, Chloe and Brandon are faced with the challenge of applying and paying for a new visa so Brandon can reunite with his family in NZ. Brandon is essentially stranded in Melbourne alone, and requires more funds for extra and ongoing Visa costs and requirements. We would be so grateful for any support - every little bit helps.
If you are able to donate or share this page, it would mean the world to us. Lets bring this family back together!
Thank you so much for your kindness and generosity,
Brandon, Chloe and Zion
