Niko & Caro Vaka need our help

Donation protected
Yesterday afternoon 16 June Niko Vakararawa had a stroke while coaching his U16 rugby league team. He is 39, fit and has a young family. His wife Carolyn, Aiseah (16), Noah (8), Jonah (4) and Laisa (1) need your help.

Niko's condition is extremely critical and he has now been transferred via air to John Hunter hospital in Newcastle - one of the leading facilities in the country for Stroke. He has very limited left side movement and is unable to communicate.

With the whirlwind of events family are trying to comes to terms and process everything.

Niko is from Fiji and although he has his Australian family here to emotionally support him, Carolyn and the children, his parents live in Fiji. The family would dearly love to be able to fly Niko's mum over to be with her son.
These funds will enable them to fly over here as soon as possible.

Carolyn shared, when the kids names are mentioned he seems to respond and has everything to fight for.

Niko has always said "he has a daughter to walk down the aisle" and it is a promise that Carolyn will be holding him to.

Niko is a self-employed plumber in Lismore and there is a long unknown road ahead. We know everyone wants to help and in times like this can often feel helpless. This is why we have set up the gofund me. Every prayer and donation is appreciated beyond measure, and every bit helps.

The money raised will help ease the finacial burden in this time of crisis and be one less stress.

They are extrememly grateful for all of the love and support. Please keep praying and sending all of your positive thoughts. If you could please share this with all of your friends and family.

We will keep you updated with his progress, and a HUGE thank you for being so generous when a local family really needs our love and support.

Together we have this.
