<div>If you live anywhere near Stokers Siding or Murwillumbah, you probably know Nola — the kind-hearted woman who keeps our little village running through the Post Office, General Store, and Numbums Café. She’s the friendly face behind the counter, the one who remembers your name, your mail, and your coffee order — because she genuinely cares.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>But on [insert date], her world was turned upside down.
</div>
<div>Her shop — the entire building that houses the Stokers Siding Post Office, General Store, and Numbums Café — was broken into and robbed. She lost a full day’s takings, her iPad, computer, stock, mail, and personal items. The damage was more than financial — it was emotional. The kind of gut-punch that leaves you wondering how to start again.

<div>Why Insurance Won’t Fix This
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Yes, Nola has some insurance, but it won’t cover everything that was stolen or lost. Small-town businesses like hers often face tight limits and exclusions — cash, tech, and stock losses are rarely fully reimbursed, and the claim process can drag on for months.
</div>
<div>Insurance can patch up damage, but it can’t replace the feeling of safety, stability, or the real cost of a community hub being knocked down.

<div>About the $10 Goal
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>You’ll notice this fundraiser’s goal is set at just $10 — and that’s deliberate.
</div>
<div>This isn’t about a number. It’s about support.
</div>
<div>It’s about showing Nola that her community stands behind her — that kindness still circulates faster than bad news. Whether it’s a few dollars, a kind message, or simply sharing the link, it all helps lift her back up.
</div>
<div><br />

</div>
<div>Why It Matters
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Nola’s been quietly supporting others for years. She’s opened her doors early, stayed late, helped locals in need, and kept the heart of Stokers Siding beating through good times and bad. Now it’s our turn to give a little of that warmth back.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Let’s help her rebuild what was taken — not just her business, but her faith in the community she’s always served with a smile.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>❤️ Every bit helps. Every share counts. Let’s lift Nola back up.</strong>
