Help bring Theo home to Australia
Donation protected
As you may have seen, We have been fighting for custody of Theo for the past 2+ years and we have finally been granted custody.
We are over the moon with this news, however, the problem we have now is finding the money to get to Canada, then Theo and I from Canada back to Australia where he will live permanently.
The money raised would go towards
- Flights: for Theo and I (to and from)
- Accomodation: for me, while I finalise everything over in Canada
- Food
Due to the process with court and FACS (the Canadian version of DOCS) over in Canada, we could find ourselves over in Canada for as long as 6-10 weeks. My husband and I are on the disability pension and cannot afford to pay the bills in Australia while also trying to pay for flights to and from, and accomodation and food for an extended period of time.
Theo has been in the foster care system in Canada since his birth on the 22nd of February 2022 and we have already spent hundreds, if not a thousands, throughout the legal process trying to be granted custody as well as getting adequate documentation for Theo.
The reasons we need to go to Canada is to
- Finalise this process and finally end the back and forth between court and DOCS/FACS
- Bring Theo into Australia and get him settled into our house where he will be raised
Any amount of money or even a share of this fundraiser is appreciated beyond words as we understand between the cost of living, groceries and bills that money is tight.
Thank you for your time and understanding,
Leanne.
