Thank you for being here, your incredible support is so valuable in helping rescue Eli. 
 
The search and rescue teams are working around the clock to find him safely, in unbelievably dense alpine bush. 
 
The funds will go towards supporting the volunteer operation and lifesaving search and rescue organisations, the incredible local community support, and the costs of the family’s own support mission. 
 
---------------------- 
 
Eli Sweeting has been missing since Sunday evening 4th May, after failing to return home from a hike up Mitre Peak, New Zealand. 
 
My brother has always enjoyed being in the mountains, and adventure is what he lives for. 
 
Eli is one of the kindest, most compassionate people in my life, and he has always been there for me. He inspires me to live and get out of my comfort zone, as well as listens and genuinely wants to know you and your story. Anyone who has met him will know what I mean. He has such a positive, vibrant, and supportive energy. 
 
Eli’s family are working on their support mission in Milford Sound, NZ. We are based in England. We just want him home safe. It doesn't need to be a big donation. Every little helps, even sharing this page. If you can help, it would mean the world to us all. Thank you for reading. We just pray they find Eli.
