Grandparent's need your help
Donation protected
On April 27,2016 my grandparents house was struck by lightening. They heard the boom and started smelling smoke. The had just enough time to get their cars out of the garage but lost almost everything else. This had been there home for 30 years. My mom and uncle grew up in that house, my cousins and I played and made memories there. It has always been a sanctuary for my family and now it is all gone.
If you didn't know my grandparents are some of the most loving people I know. My grandpa has helped run mission trips to Ecuador to help the people down there and of course my grandma was alway there to help. They are the most hard working people I know!
Unfortunately this isn't the first time something bad has happened to their house. It had already flood two times in the last 15 years and they took care of that pretty much on their own.
Insurance adjusters have come and the amount they are receiving is nothing close to what everything in that house was worth.
What breaks my heart the most is that my grandparents have traveled around the world and have picked up little memories and momentos along the way and those are all gone. I loved walking down their hallway and seeing all the places they have been.
I have seen everyone on Facebook asking how they can help and I thought okay everyone makes these gofundme pages (and yes sometimes they are annoying to see), but I couldn't imagine any other two people who deserve it more.
Please help my grandparents in anywa that you can. I would like to just fill their hearts with all the love that people have for them.
Thank god they made it out of the house safely and they have a long journey ahead of them, so if you can't give, just pray for them :)
THANKS!
