Rising Above the Ashes

Hey folks, I hope you've been grateful for your blessings lately! Late last night, the unthinkable happened to my brother Ben and his housemates my very close and dear family friends, Matteo, Drayton, and Ariel as well as another close friend, Chas. Their house caught fire while they were all sleeping. My brother woke up to find the living room up in flames and woke everyone up. They all got out with some burns and lung damage, but have lost most of their necessities and valuables in the fire. There literally were not clothes on some of their backs as they were reminded how precious it is to be alive early that morning.
This group of young individuals are all extremely passionate and driven people. They're talented artists, musicians, students, critical thinkers that care very much about their impact on the world.
Our families don't have all the money for them to completely start over, so I'm asking you to give anything you can, a dollar, ten, a hundred, a thousand, all are humbly appreciated. The money raised will be split amongst the four of them. If you can't donate financially or want to help by donating material items, here is a list of things lost in the fire and clothing/shoe sizes:

Clothing:
womens shoes size 8-8.5
work boots (women's most importantly- Ariel builds for a living)
