This appeal is to help stranded Wallisians in Auckland. Visitors to our country need to go home safe and healthy with good memories of NZ
Auckland
This group of 25 performers and helpers from Wallis and Futuna came to perform at the Pasifika festival on the Tahiti stage and then go back to their families on March 21. Even though the Pasifika was cancelled they gave 2 free shows at the Auckland War Memorial Museum to present their culture
Their flight back on March 21 t was cancelled by their government as well as any flight going to New Caledonia. They are now stuck in their apartments, which they will need to pay during the whole lock down.
It is for 99% of them their very 1st time on a plane and to New Zealand. Some of them are mature persons and some have health issues. Although they brought enough medications to last 2 weeks, they are now running out of medication and injections and will have to pay much more expensive prices for medication. Their priority is now focused on medication or food
It's their intention to go home as soon as possible if only their government in New Caledonia would in agreement with the NZ government, send an emergency plane to collect over 300 other compatriots. They are here because of the lock down and would be very grateful to the people of NZ for any help they could give
I am the Tahiti village coordinator for the Pasifika festival. I invited this group called Taofi Ke Mau from Wallis and Futuna to come and perform onto the Tahiti stage. They are now stranded here and I am trying to help them.
The funds will be to pay for medications, food and accommodations. If we have a surplus of funds, I will give it to a charity that helps other stranded visitors. If things don't go to plan the priority will be to buy medication and injections
Thank you all for your help/ Merci a tous pour votre generosite. 9 April 2020
Dear friends
The Wallisians are now safely home in New Caledonia and very happy. They have seen the generosity of the people from Aotearoa-NZ and want to thank you all. We have managed to raise as much as we could to help our neighbours of the Pacific. I am, now closing down this givealittle. Thank you!
