Raising funeral funds for my little brother.

Manawatu / Whanganui

On wednsday the 3rd of April 2019 my family lost my little brother. My parents and sister in law are fronting the money strain which hurts because im unable to help them. ACC may be providing my sister in law with some help but it will take time to process and wont cover the full amount. My parents have had to get a bank loan to give my brother an amazing send off yesterday. But now money strains are becoming a major issue and it sucks seeing my parents trying to find money that doesnt exsist. I dont like asking strangers for help, we are a proud family. But this isnt the time for pride. We need any help we can get. Treat each other well and look after family everyone. Wishing anyone who reads this safe travels on our roads.

Use of funds

If i raise enough to cover my brothers funeral costs thats all that matters. Any surplus will go to my sister in law to help her in her time of need.

Change of plans.  25 April 2019

After speaking with mum and thinking about it all we have decided that all funds raised will go to my sister in law to cover any debts passed on to her as she is legally my brothers de-facto partner. They will total between 8-10 thousand. Thanks to all those who have given so far. You have no idea what it means to us all. I cant thank you all enough.
