Scrap Metal Recycling Association of NZ, Inc's involvement (page creator)

This fundraiser has been organised by the Scrap Metal Recycling Association of NZ, Inc. Roy's employer, Metal Solutions BOP Ltd, is a member of the Association and we want to support Roy in getting back to work because disasters like this can happen to anyone in our industry.

Use of funds

Roy and his family will use the funds to help pay for new clothes and furniture and all the emergency expenses that happen when everything you own is lost. Although insured, there will be deductibles to pay on every insurance policy and some items are needed now. The family also has a cat and they are actively looking for temporary accommodation so the family can stay together.
