If you’re able, please consider donating to help my family rebuild after a tornado wreaked havoc. Every bit truly makes a difference

Welcome Bay, Tauranga

Woken in the early hours of the morning on Sunday 19th April by a tornado ripping through the house.

Garage is gone, windows shattered, everything soaked.

My mums and little sister frightened by something you’d never expect to happen to you in little ol’ Tauranga, New Zealand.

Help my family get back on their feet while their home is uninhabitable.

On average, fundraisers pay just 2% to use Givealittle. This is one of the lowest effective fees in New Zealand fundraising. We charge a 5% platform fee to cover the cost of running the platform. Because most donors choose to top up their donation to cover this fee, the effective cost paid by fundraisers is about 2%. That means around 98 cents of every dollar raised goes to the cause.
