On 18/07/2015 a tornado hit the north of Auckland leaving chaos in its wake. This tornado has left thousands of dollars of damage for us.

Auckland

Hello, and thank you first and foremost for considering to give to this cause. Any help is hugely appreciated, whether it is $1 or $100, no matter how big or small, it all means so much to us. On the 18/07/2015 a tornado ripped through northern parts of Auckland and hit my sisters farm. While she is a proud woman and never asks for help, I have seen her struggle too much and this tornado was the tip of the iceberg. It has caused thousands of dollars of damage in its wake and copious amounts of added stress on our family. The water tank was thrown and damaged, the chicken pen was ripped apart, fences which were put up a week before after scraping up enough money for them, huge trees have fallen and damaged many things including the neighbours fence which also needs to now be fixed by us. A room in the house was also ripped apart.

We are very fortunate our family is safe as well as our animals. We are now turning to the New Zealand community for help to rebuild as we simply cannot afford it. Thank you once again for considering.

2% Effective Fee
On average, fundraisers pay just 2% to use Givealittle. This is one of the lowest effective fees in New Zealand fundraising. We charge a 5% platform fee to cover the cost of running the platform. Because most donors choose to top up their donation to cover this fee, the effective cost paid by fundraisers is about 2%. That means around 98 cents of every dollar raised goes to the cause.
