Support the Cooper family as Renee battles with cancer

Wellington

This week Renee was diagnosed with cancer. As a mother of three beautiful boys this is the worst news a mother could receive while her kids are so very young, aged 11, 7 and 5. Many of us know the Coopers and what they do and give for our local community.

Renee and Nick are partway through their home renovations. We would love to take away the stress and burden of this work and help complete their home the way Renee dreamed it would be. Renee wants to create a beautiful home for her family to enjoy for years to come.

With your help we can ensure that Renee and Nick’s dreams are fulfilled meaning they can spend time together as a family, making lasting memories and in the comfort of a beautiful finished home.

We would also like to acknowledge a lot of you that are helping in other non financial ways by giving your time to help and prayers, it's mind blowing how many offers of help are coming in so, thank you very much. Our gratitude goes beyond words.

Ntombi Mupariwa's involvement (page creator)

We are friends of Nick and Renee’s. Through this cause, together with the Cooper family, local community, all friends and the rugby community at large, we are helping them navigate this awful news and doing our part to make their lives a little easier.

Use of funds

Money will be used to complete Renee and Nick’s home renovations which they are partway through. Any remaining money will be used to support the family while Nick is off work caring for Renee.

Cooper Family - I’m so very sorry for your loss. Renee was such a beautiful person, not a bad bone in her body (maybe a cheeky one or two). The last time I saw Renee was early 2016 when she was still pregnant. It was right before I took off for Canada (where I still am today). Never thought it would be the last time I’d get to see my dear friend. In our catch-ups she just loved to talk about her boys, their sporting achievements but also their kindness (which was Renee’s greatest trait). Thinking of you all during this incredibly difficult time. Much love, Rebecca.
