Mienna Mitchell & Family - Geelong tornedo loss

My niece, Mienna, is a working mum with a 2 year old daughter and is due to have her second child in November. 

On May 20th a tornado hit Geelong causing an extreme amount of damage to the family’s rental house, roof and backyard, making the property uninhabitable. Mienna, Almir and their daughter Zahli had only recently moved into the property after searching for over 12 months. Unfortunately, their landlord did not have adequate insurance to cover their expenses to move and relocate.  Fortunately, Mienna and Almir had taken out contents and car insurance, however they will be significantly out of pocket due to having to relocate again. They will have to pay rent in advance and removal costs.

They are currently living in a small space with Almir’s parents and although grateful to have a roof over their head, they are desperately looking for another house to rent so they can settle in before their second baby arrives. 

I am hoping this GofundMe campaign will raise enough money to assist with their relocation costs and remove some of the financial burden placed upon them due to this catastrophic event. They have so much to deal with including finding and moving house yet again whilst working, disruptions to work, having the car off the road and trying to replace damaged furniture andAndroid household goods.

I understand that this is a difficult time for everyone - any assistance provided will be greatly appreciated by myself, Mienna and her family. Any contribution will help. Thank you xx
