Help my Aunty out of extreme poverty.

Auckland

My Aunty Thuy, was married to my mother’s step brother (a kiwi man) for over 27 years. She helped him build a thriving business and visa wise helped him stay in Vietnam. They have 2 daughters.

After the death of my grandfather, my mums dad, and her step brothers, step father. My Aunty ended up divorced, leaving her absolutely destitute.

In Vietnam you don’t get financial assistance from the government. There is no help. If you are widowed or divorced, nobody will help you as it’s seen as offensive in society. You are left to survive.

Thuy is one amazing lady, she helped my grandfather through decades with her love and care. She deserves help. Unfortunately her ex husband has sold everything, she has nothing left.

Any money raised. Will keep her out of a shelter, which is more like a prison. It will help her with food. And being able to keep a phone.

Temporary shelter success   15 February 2025

Thank you all to have donated so far. I managed to send the current funds of $497 to my aunt and she’s recieved it so great-fully. She’s found a home for the next few months. Living in Vietnam is cheap for us in comparison but still expensive for them there. But I worry when this money runs out. So I’m keeping this page open for whoever may want to continue to donate.
