Fundraiser for Gavin's Ceremony & Totem Pole

Hi everyone, we are doing this go fund me to raise funds for this family with the tragic death of Hinae Honor's son, Gavin O'Brien

Their loss and pain through this time is immense!

If there is any way you can help with a donation toward Gavins Memory Totem Pole for his mum Hinae Honor to keep forevermore in honor of her son it will be graciously welcomed.

Or If there is any way you can help with a donation toward their mounting costs for trying to give this young man the best send off after all he has been through, and all that his final months of breaking leading up to his tragic death put his family through, then all is deeply appreciated

Hinae, Gavins Mum, deserves all the support we can muster. She has created and runs, entirely on her own, a not for profit affordable stable housing set up on her property for women for many years now. A safe haven with insight long ago into the housing crisis Australia would slide into. She has kept that going without funding or support from outside.

She recently poured all she had into repairing the property after significant flood damage, again out of her own pocket without funding to keep this property going for those women.

In short, she is all spent, and now trying to cope with the tragedy of her oldest son's death and the expense of his Tangihanga ceremony and funeral costs.

Thank you for your consideration

If you know Gavin or his family and wish to come to his Tangi in support you are most welcome.

Totem Pole hoping to be purchased in memory of Gavin is made by local artist Jason Morning.
