August 12th, 2025, tragically changed my family's life in the blink of an eye. In the early morning, a fire started by the porch, which quickly lit the whole thing up, along with the side of the house. All of our family's belongings are covered in water, ash, fiberglass insulation, and whatever chemicals are needed to put out a fire. My dad has worked for the community for over 20 years as a corrections officer, while my mom dedicated her life to navigating and supporting my sister and her disabilities. If you are able to donate while we figure out this trying time, we would be grateful. If you are not able to donate, we ask that you share this GoFundMe. Thank you all for the support during this time.
