As many of you know I’ve been splitting my time between Los Angeles and New Zealand, you’re probably also aware that there was a 6.3 magnitude earthquake the other day down in Christ Church that has led to a considerable loss of life and what has been estimated to be billions of dollars in damages.
NZ, now being my part-time home, I thought I’d post this to help support the cause. Many people will be homeless as a result of the quake, and they’ll need help.
