Fundraiser expanded for more whānau
24 May 2021Kia ora,
This fundraiser was originally launched by the whānau of some of the men transferred out of Waikeria Prison because of the Waikeria Uprising.
The whānau contacted People Against Prisons Aotearoa (PAPA) and asked us to take over the fundraiser. This was to ensure that more whānau could be supported and that the funds could be distributed fairly.
Since then, PAPA has gone away and prepared software and trained volunteers to process the funding applications. If your whānau member was transferred out of Waikeria Prison because of the Waikeria Uprising, you can apply for funding to visit them here: https://advocacy.papa.org.nz/o/request/waikeria-funding
Thanks for your support.
