Help get Reliquaire on its feet

Donation protected
My name is Daniel Reid, and I am the fiance of Lauren Christie. I live in Devonport, Tasmania with Lauren and our two fur babies - Dexter and Gypsy.
As most people visiting this page would already know, Lauren and her family lost not only their family business, but up until recently their family home of 20+ years.
Below is some further information that I have put together collectively with the Christie family.

"Sylvia and Kim Christie began renovating and opened Reliquaire over 21 years ago. They put their heart and soul into this magical store that was also their family home until recently. On Christmas Eve, an accidental fire caused by a faulty switchboard, saw the entirety of the 28 room wonderland tragically burn to the ground. The fire was devastating, quickly destroying everything in its path as well as years of hard work. Reliquaire was more than a shop, it meant so much to so many people and to the Latrobe community.

Reliquaire may not be able to rebuild the place we know and love, but we hope that this will assist in getting the family back on their feet and may open more doors moving forward."

Initially the money raised will go directly to help get a temporary site up and running, this may include displays, stock or any other costs that may be involved with opening a temporary site. Due to my family connection with the Christies, the funds will be provided directly to them and they are constantly in the loop regarding the progress of this fund. We thank you so much for your help and support. We can't wait to see what the future brings.
