Lampariello Family Fire Fund

Dear friends of mine (and many of yours), Rick and Kristina Lampariello, lost near everything last night in a tragic house fire, including one of their vehicles and a beloved pet. They have 3 young children with another on the way! Luckily their smoke detectors were in good working order, and they were smart enough and brave enough to grab the kids and get out as fast as they could, but did so with only the clothes on their backs. No phones, no wallets, nothing. These things can obviously be replaced, but they could use our support right now.

This is a young family who is so generous with their time, talent and resources for others in need, please help if you can. 

The fire happened late last night after a day spent celebrating their second daughter's third birthday!  In addition to their 3 year old, affectionately called "Kay" by those of us blessed to know and love her sweetly devilish little smile, they have a 6 year-old daughter, Miss Kelsey, an incredibly loving an supportive little lady who just started 1st grade, and Baby Boy Dominic, who has the brightest blue eyes and infectious smile I have ever seen!  The entire house was basically destroyed, despite the quick response and hardwork of our local fire departments.  Again, thankfully the family made it out safely, with the exception (although I haven't given up hope) of everyone's favorite feline, Mikey.  However, they have a long way to go before they are whole again.

In addition to their home, furniture, housewares, clothes, kids' toys and games, etc., Kristina is a budding and talented photographer who runs her business out of her home.  She will need to replace all of her equipment so she can continue to foster this talent and business in support of her growing family.   

Every little bit will help this beautiful family get back on their feet.  If you can donate $1 or $100, please do so!
