PLEASE READ THE UPDATES AS WELL!

We have 4 families that lost everything to a fire that occurred at 3:30AM on Saturday April 22. During the fire, the residents on the 2nd floor had to escape from the 2nd story window. One out of  the 4 families were seriously injured and in critical condition at ECMC including:

-mother who suffered severe burns to the throat and shoulders who is in an induced comma and is possibly in need of a skin graft operation

-father with an injured spine and crushed foot due to falling out of 2nd floor window with 4 and 2 year old children

-4 year old girl recovering from smoke inhalation, swelling and injuries in the neck, and cuts on the face. She is feeding and breathing through a tube and is in the ICU.

Update: Her lung left lung collapsed at 4:00AM on 4/24/2017. An emergency procedure has been done on her and we are still waiting for the results. Keep her in your prayers. 

-3 year old boy who suffered 2nd degree burns to both arms and legs and also burns on face. Incapable of opening eyes due to scratched cornea. 

-6 month old baby was thrown out of the 2nd floor window who was luckily caught by neighbors

    The other family on the second floor had to jump out of the window onto the porch roof and jump off to the ground. One of the family members injured both feet.

    Other 2 families are at ECMC for smoke inhalation and other possible injuries.

     All four families have lost everything and some of those families have no medical insurance that will cover the medical expenses and damages to personal belongings.

      Whatever you are able to donate would be much apprecaited. 100% of the money will be given to the families as needed to pay for relocating, medical expenses, clothing, furniture, food etc.

If you aren't capable of donating you can still help by sharing this post. Thank you so much. God bless.  

We will be posting updates on the conditions of the families as soon as we get new information.

IF ANYONE HAS ANY INFORMATION IN REGARDS TO THE OTHER FAMILIES PLEASE CONTACT US IMMEDIATELY!

GoFundMe has asked me bring forth a little more info on the campaign.

My name is Ali Berman and I am the director of the campaign for the four families affected by the fire. I am from Lackawanna NY. In regards to relations to the families I am friends with the brother of one of the families but I consider myself a brother to everyone in the community and will do everything in my will to help anyone out with anything. The funds will be used as mentioned above (medical expenses for those who do not have health insurance, clothing, food, relocation, and any other expenses the families would have for any wants and needs). I plan on withdrawing the money and working with ACCESS of WNY to distribute the funds to the families.
