Fundraising for Riley’s family/ funeral costs

Masterton, Wellington

UPDATE- Beautiful Riley passed suddenly on the morning of 26.09.24. Please support this family if you can.

Hi everyone.

Steph, Kane and little Riley are needing a bit of support while Riley is in Wellington hospital. Riley has been there for around three weeks now with undiagnosed ongoing medical issues. She has since gone downhill and is in ICU needing oxygen and very close monitoring. Steph has been staying there while Kane has been travelling backwards and forwards home to Masterton so he can work and still pay their mortgage and bills. Now that Riley is in ICU, it’s really important that Kane is able to stay with the girls but they need support for their mortgage payments and living costs. Please, if you are able to donate, every little bit helps. Thank you- Grace (friend of Steph and family).

We just wanted to say a huge thank you to everyone that has made a donation and left messages on here. Sorry that we haven't done an update in a while. This money has helped us in so many ways since it was set up when Riley ended up in ICU and we are truly grateful. From helping to pay the mortgage and bills while Kane was off work to support Riley and I in Wellington Hospital when she was very unwell or having surgery to covering some of the funeral costs, time off work, time away from the house and memorial items so we can treasure the memory of our girl forever. It has been over two months since we suddenly lost our little girl and it's been the hardest time of our lives. Not having her here this Christmas is extremely hard and her Birthday is March will be even harder. Having this Givealittle has just been incredible and we can't thank you all enough for the support, it honestly means the world to us 🩷🐰
