Cairns support fund for Chilean stab victim

Following on from the recent assault and stabbing of a 26 year old Chilean tourist at a local Cairns backpacker hostel, the Cairns community is being encouraged to come together to assist in the recovery process of Constanza “Kuki” Escudero by pledging financial assistance. 

Cairns is a wonderful city filled with wonderful natural attractions such as the Great Barrier Reef – which is why tourists such as Constanza are drawn from all over the world to our region. Similarly, Cairns is a city of very generous people who know how to show their hospitality when rolling out the welcome mat. I implore all concerned people who have been moved by this unprovoked assault and stabbing of our Chilean visitor Constanza to stand united with me and others to show their humanity by donating generously.  Constanza is someone's daughter, someone's sister and someone's cousin and she could have been my daughter or your daughter.

Let’s now welcome her into our Cairns family with open arms so that she may always be reminded of the goodness of Cairns and its people – rather than the random and brutal unprovoked act of violence that recently threatened her very life.

* Congratulations and a very big thank you to everyone who kindly donated funds towards this GoFundMe campaign that I (Martin Anton) set up to directly benefit her. We have together now raised over $4,000.00 for Constanza and I now plan to close the page once and for all so that Constanza can receive the much needed funds for her on-going medical recovery in her home country of Chile.  Whilst I am not personally related to Constanza, I now intend to apply to the GoFundMe Organization to withdraw the donated money and have it transferred to my nominated bank account in Cairns, Queensland, Australia on behalf of Constanza Escudero in Chile.  Once the money has been received into my nominated personal bank account, the donated funds will be transferred directly into a pre-nominated Australian ANZ bank account authorized by Constanza herself. 

On behalf of both myself and a very appreciative Constanza Escudero in Chile, I would like to once again sincerely thank everyone who directly contributed to the success of this fundraising campaign by donating money.  Similarly, I would like to take this opportunity to  encourage all concerned to continue giving generously towards future fundraising campaigns if and when the occasion arises. If you are all like me - (and I suspect you are), far more satisfaction and pleasure can be experienced in life by an individual from the actions of giving generously to campaigns such as this - as opposed to receiving gifts from others.

Thanks again to everyone who contributed.
May your future lives be blessed with good health and good fortune.
