READ MORE: 'The perfect murder': Leigh-Ann Sabine's daughter speaks out
Since Jane Sabine spoke out about her family and started a fundraising page more than $1100 has been donated. The 50-year-old said she very much appreciated the generosity of New Zealanders.
One donor said they were touched by her story and wished her luck on her journey.
"I also lost my mum when I was 3 - of natural causes - but I know how much it has affected me and I can't imagine what it must have been like for you."
Jane said the support meant "the world" to her.
"Imagine: no parents, no grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousin. This has been my life. Until now," Ms Sabine wrote on the Givealittle page.
"I am hoping with the help of some amazing people I will be able to raise enough to go to Wales and meet family I have never known ... and heal the little girl inside.
"I have a yearn (sic) to know, to find and to seek my sense of belonging that is so very weak."
