Given by 21 generous donors in 4 weeks

Manny's beloved mother lost her home in a devastating house fire last week. He urgently needs to fly back from NZ to support her recovery.

Auckland

Our colleague Manuel (Manny) working on the Eastern Busway Alliance Site is facing a heartbreaking family emergency.

A devastating house fire destroyed his mother’s home leaving her with nothing. At her age, the trauma and injuries from the fire have seriously affected her health.

Manny has been quietly covering all her medical expenses while working here in New Zealand. He now urgently needs to fly back to Chile to support her recovery, help with emergency accommodation, and give her the emotional care she needs during this difficult time.

Every donation will directly help with:

Ongoing medical and recovery costs

Essential support for his mother

Manny's return flights and short stay so he can be by her side

Manuel is a dedicated team member who is always there for others. This is our chance to support him and his family when they need it most.

Any amount, big or small, will make a real difference. Thank you for your kindness and generosity.

Kia kaha Manuel and his mother ❤️
