Jeffrey, 22 years old, needs your help

Jeff needs help with money to buy disability equipment after an accident early November 2023 left him paralysed from the waist down.

Onehunga, Auckland

In November 2023 he fell, shattering his T11 and T12 vertebrae, severing his spinal cord and paralysing him from the waist down.

Jeff had been living in Perth however has to return to New Zealand as he isn’t eligible for Australian Government support and cannot work.

ACC doesn’t cover Jeff’s injury and while the Ministry of Social Development will help with living costs, Jeff needs help to purchase disability equipment as he works through what life after his devastating accident will look like.

We are looking to raise $25,000 towards a hands only converted car and light weight wheelchair.

Every bit helps, thank you for your generosity and support.
