A way to support Lily and Mia
Wellington
Lily and Mia have lost the most important man in their life, their dad Kane Kapernick. At the moment the girls are surrounded by family and friends who love and support them but we know working through the trauma of losing him so suddenly will take time.
Our lovely friends and family have been asking how they can help and also if they can provide a koha.
We have been overwhelmed with the support we’ve received to date, but in response to people’s requests, we would like to provide an opportunity for people to make a small contribution to support the girls as they work through their grief and begin to heal, both now and into the future.
This fund will be used to pay for things such as immediate and ongoing support sessions, additional educational support if required, lessons to support their passions like art, dance, netball and basketball and possibly the adoption of a new best friend for them (aka the dog they’ve always wanted). It will be used for anything we think will help with the healing process and their overall wellbeing.
I’m also going to create a beautiful book of stories and photos of their dad. If you’d like to contribute a story and photo (optional) please email kanestributebook@gmail.com.
Any funds raised will also be used to produce this book so the girls have a lifetime of stories to read and their dad will stay with them forever.
Thank you again for all the support you’ve shown Lily, Mia, myself and the wider Kapernick family.
Lily and Mia are my daughters
Immediate and long term counseling sessions, production of a book of memories, activities that will support their wellbeing and the healing process.
Thank you 23 August 2024
Lily, Mia and I would like to thank everyone for your incredibly generous contributions. Your generous contributions will be put in an account and used for likely years to come.
Thought I’d share a couple of pics. Girls are both back at school and back doing the things they love with the support of their friends and family. Mia’s team played their hearts out for Kane last Friday at basketball and I know he’d be so proud, lily did the same at netball. Mia had an amazing birthday bowling with her extended family and Lily just recently completed her most recent art work. Thanks again, sending our love and appreciation right back to you xxx
