Shona Cairns hasn't added a story.
There is a young lady I met from a young age while living in Kawerau, New Zealand. She was raised by her solo father. Everytime she would go to school her father would always get a teachers aid position at her school so he was never far from her. She was never allowed to be far from him. Then one day going to intermediate school she built up the courage to tell the school nurse what had been happening to her behind closed doors. In a short, story there was video to prove it. Her father went to prison. He is now out of jail and lives 6 hours from her and now she has two children aged 3 & 4. Even though he lives that distance away from her she feels as though he can get to her now. She said she always felt safe to be with my family and always looked to my husband and myself as mum and dad. She wants to come and make her and her children a new life in Australia by us, She knows its going to be hard to get a job and that she won't be entitled to any benefits or handouts here. She knows we will support her until she can get on her feet and be there if she falls. Right now I don't have funds to bring her over from NZ to Australia and to pay for her passports as recently my own family needed to be back in NZ on an urgent personal family reasons so I had used all my personal finances to get home at very short notice. I am reaching out to you to ask if you can help me bring a young mum and her children here to Australia through this fundraiser where we can help her make a better and safer life for her and her two children
