Emily Sanson-Rejouis wants to say thank you to New Zealand.

Thank you for all the prayers, support and gifts that continue to flow in following Haiti's devastating earthquake.

The magnitude seven quake killed an estimated 300,000 people, among them Emily's husband and two daughters.

In her first and only interview emily talks about the day she lost them, her grief, and the unique road to healing that has kept her connected with her family.

A shipping container is about to leave to Haiti and Emily is hoping the public can donate school supplies, medical supplies and sports equipment to the following drop off locations around New Zealand by Tuesday July 20.

Information for drop off locations are on the website www.kenbelafoundation.org or you can contact 0800 24 24 84, which is 0800 2 HAITI for more information.

Monetary donations can be made to any Bank of New Zealand branch, account number 02-0704-0078180-001
