HELP WITH COSTS - The Jen Kinsella Memorial Fund
We are thrilled to introduce the Jennifer Kinsella Memorial Fund, named after our previous Marketing and Communications Manager, who we sadly lost last year.
Jen was the mastermind behind our previous conferences, running them with amazing efficiency. She was also passionate about our conference appreciation fund, which provided financial assistance to help caregivers attend our conference.
In honour of Jen and her dedication to the appreciation fund, we commit to continuing and growing this fund in her name. With her family’s permission, we have named this the Jen Kinsella Memorial Fund. So, we remember Jen at every conference, not with sadness but with appreciation for her contribution to care families across New Zealand. So, her generosity, kindness, and desire to do good will live on in a way that we believe she will like.
If you are a caregiver member of ours you are eligible to apply for this funding if you have not received funding before. Please download the application form here. Applications close Sunday 23rd June.
