Do you know a teacher who's helped a family in need?

Kendall Hutt Reporter from North Shore Times

Hi neighbours. Stuff is writing a story about teachers buying essentials for students in need. There's the stuff you'd expect, like food and pens, but then some have bought clothes for a whole family whose house had burnt down, paid for car repairs and donated furniture etc.
Has your family or a family you know been helped out by a school, perhaps in a time of crisis? Email education reporter josephine.franks@stuff.co.nz if you'd be willing to share your story. Jos would love to hear from you. Put NFP in your post if it is not for publication.
