Help support the Horsfield family who just lost their home and contents due to accidental house fire.
Support for our family as we just lost our home and everything in it.
Island Bay, Wellington
We just lost our dream home in Island Bay to an accidental house fire and we are absolutely devastated. We lost all of our belongings. Words can’t not explain the grief we feel right now. We will need to find a rental home while we are demolishing our home that burned down and rebuild our house and life. A good friend of mine recommended that I ask for support from our friends and community with this service. Any help you can give will help us. We all made it out safely and rescued our dog. Our kitty Thirteen is still missing and so if you find my sweet fur baby please get in touch. I’m so sad without her. The Give a Little Moderator wants me to clarify some of the details. We were under-insured as far as contents and temporary accommodation goes.
Thank you all for your help.
Love, gratitude and blessings, Schamet, Gray, Octavius, Halifax, Snowy Starla and Thirteen.
Use of funds
We will utilise money that is donated to help with all household essentials including furniture, kitchen and household appliances, clothing, food, and day-to-day living expenses. To clarify, we do have house insurance for the demolition and rebuilding.
