On August 9, our lives were shattered when a devastating fire destroyed our home. In the blink of an eye, everything we had was gone. My disabled father, our surviving dog, and I were left with nothing but the overwhelming grief of losing our other beloved dog in the fire. The pain of losing a member of our family is something I can’t even begin to describe.
Since that tragic day, we’ve been living out of our car, trying to stay afloat in any way we can. When we manage to gather enough money, we stay in hotels, but those moments of relief are rare. We’re doing everything we can to hold on until we can move into a new place on September 18, but until then, we are essentially homeless.
We need around $3,000 to secure a place to stay, replace some of the clothes that were ruined in the fire, and afford basic necessities like food. The Red Cross was there for us initially, providing a few days’ worth of supplies and lodging, but their help has now run its course. We’re at a loss, unsure of where to turn next. Each day is a struggle to find safety, warmth, and a little bit of hope.
We are reaching out to you, hoping that you can find it in your heart to help us during this unimaginable hardship. Anything you can give, no matter how small, will make a world of difference to us. We are desperate for any support as we try to rebuild our lives after this tragedy.
Please, if you can, help us find some stability until we can move into our new home. Your kindness and generosity could be the lifeline we need to make it through this dark time.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
