My Travel Story

by: Sharli Harmse Start Date: Mar 27, 2024 - End Date: Jul 26, 2024
 I am trying to gather funds for my parents who wish to immigrate to New Zealand. The financial situation we are in makes it difficult to kickstart the process. They are working with an immigration office to ensure they don't miss any steps, especially considering their age. They need to be 70% paper ready, and this is where the funding becomes crucial. My parents are unaware that I have initiated a fundraiser for them. Witnessing their daily struggles weighs heavily on my heart. The root of our current situation dates back to the recession of 2010, which severely impacted my dad's business. Since then, we have been unable to fully recover. I empathize with my parents as I see the guilt creeping in due to the lack of pension and medical aid. They feel like they have failed because they couldn't provide medical aid for me and my sister, leaving us vulnerable in case of emergencies. This is a deeply personal matter for me, and I wouldn't share it if it wasn't urgent. Our economy is deteriorating, crime rates are rising, and the cost of fuel is escalating. My dad is struggling immensely, and a fresh start is what they truly need. I sincerely hope that someone with a generous heart will consider donating any amount they can to help us. I express my gratitude in advance to everyone who chooses to support us.
