A Friend in Need

Auckland

Our dear friend Mary is facing a challenging time. While working in Rarotonga, she sustained a serious knee injury and had to be medevacced back to New Zealand. She’s now waiting for surgery and faces a long road to recovery—without access to sick leave or financial support. I’ve set up this page because Mary is one of those rare souls who is always there for others: kind, generous, and quietly lending a hand to anyone in need. Here is an opportunity for us to help her. Any contribution, big or small, will help ease her stress and support her so she can focus on healing. Thank you so much for your kindness—Mary will be deeply grateful for any support you can offer.

I have known Mary for 25 years. She is a very close friend.

Use of funds

The funds raised will help cover her everyday living costs. Things like board, groceries, transport to medical appointments, and basic everyday bills. She also has storage fees and a student loan to pay.
