Wellingtonians have dug deep to support a refugee family who had their car stolen.
Within hours of word getting out about the Burmese family’s plight, donors replaced their car, and a crowdfunding campaign raised nearly $24,000. Husband and wife A Noung and Than Than Nyain, along with their sons Mu Gay and Win Naing Soe, settled in Wellington in 2019 after fleeing ethnic violence in Myanmar.
Through a translator, A Noung said his eldest son, Mu Gay, who owned the stolen car, was dancing for joy when he saw the generosity of more than 500 benefactors.
Ben and Geraldine Everist donated their Mazda Premacy to the family..
Insurance and a steering wheel lock were also purchased for it in case of a repeat incident.
