This is a fundraiser page to alleviate the financial stress associated with the unthinkable situation the gale family find themselves in.

Wellington

Hi all,

Just under two weeks ago in the early hours of the morning the Gale family’s lives changed forever. Their son Keenan was struck by a car whilst out doing what he loves (running). Since the accident he has had lifesaving surgery to allow his injuries to heal and has now woken up in ICU after 2 weeks assisted on a ventilator. Keenan’s journey will see him in a hospital ward for over a month then he will be completing a very long and challenging rehabilitation process at a specialist facility. He will be in rehab for many many months to possibly a year to allow him to regain as much function as possible to what many of us know as normality.

I Kelvin have set up the donation page on the families behalf so as to allow those who would like to assist however big or small to donate to the family if they wish. Donations will go into the bank account of Keenan’s parents and they will receive the funds to assist with resources and other various expenses that may need to be covered along with relieving the financial stress that comes along with the unthinkable situation they find themselves in.

This donation page is a way I feel that everyone who wants to contribute is able too and it does not limit donations to large or small ! Anyone who can help or wants to can do so regardless of the amount .

Anything is incredibly generous.

No donation is too small and your generosity is hugely appreciated and the family will be incredibly grateful for everyone’s support and kind messages!
