Help a scaffolder give his family a chance to say goodbye

Wellington

Unfortunate edit: Leo has sadly passed away today due to implications, this give a little page will now be used to cover funeral costs and support for those closest to him. Hopefully if we raise enough, we can send Leo back home to the Phillipines so his wife and children get the chance to say goodbye in person

Our hard working friend has recently been diagnosed with stage 4 colon cancer.

Leomar is a man who works in scaffolding upwards of 70 hours to provide for his family back home, in the Phillipines. along side that he makes himself available to all his work mates and friends wether it’s to cook for them, offer his support, and help them out in anyway he possibly can. Leomar is a very cherished person by those that love him and want to repay Leo for his continued benevolance and generosity

On behalf of Leo, his co-workers, former co workers and friends alike have banded together to give our support anyway we can. We are hoping to raise 15,000 to help get his wife to nz to help take care of him and for financial aid while he undergoes chemo therapy

I lost my father to cancer during the pandemic, and missed his funeral due to having Covid. A year later, we had a graveside memorial, and it meant a lot to me to be able to say goodbye properly, surrounded by family. Leomar’s family deserves this chance to do the same.
