Michelle Foster Family Support Fund

Donation protected
Tragically on October 25th 2018 Michelle, 36 was brutally killed in a random attack at Colonnades shopping centre in Adelaide. Her death leaves behind her partner Ashley along with their 2 beautiful and courageous daughters. 

It saddens us deeply that we are reaching out to the community to help our son, brother, cousin and friend Ashley who lost his partner of 18 years, Michelle.

Since that Thursday time has gone slow for everyone that knew Michelle but not as slow as it has been for Ashley and the girls. As we try to come to terms with why this happened we are supporting him as much as we can but current family resources have been exhausted.

Ashley is an incredibly loving, caring and doting father. He is now the sole parent of 2 little girls. He has been unable to return to work for the foreseeable. He now faces the tremendous task of being the sole financial, physical and emotional provider for his girls as well as taking care of himself. 

The violent attack that caused her death has not only deeply affected family and friends that she leaves behind but also the wider community who are distraught that yet another life has been taken way too soon in such horrifying circumstances.

We ask if you are able, please consider Ashley and his treasured daughters and make a donation towards rebuilding their lives without Michelle. A little can go a long way! If you are unable to make a donation we would appreciate if you could help us in spreading the word by sharing this fund far and wide. 

Every donation no matter how big or small helps and all money raised will go directly to Ashley and his daughters.

If you are able to donate or assist in getting this fund circulated we appreciate the generosity of your money and time. 

Kind Regards

Ben & Stacey Kappler - cousin & wife
