House fire
Donation protected
Hi, I am starting this GoFundMe to help my niece and great niece, who lost their home last night due to a house fire. The fire is currently under investigation for arson. They lost everything, including my great nieces kittens. Marissa is single mom who is also a college student and works very hard to provide for herself and her 7 year old Emmi. She wrecked her only vehicle a month ago, which unfortunately ended up totally her car, when a horse and buggy pulled out in front of her and has been working hard to get another vehicle, so she is able to get to work and appointments and now she has to not only find a way to get a new vehicle, she now needs to find another place to live and replace all her belongings. She is not one to ask for help, but in a situation like this it takes a village. Please, if you're able to help do so, and if not please say a prayer for them and share, so we can get the word out and help them! Thank you so much!
❤️ UPDATE ❤️ The red cross has paid for 1 night stay at a hotel for Marissa and Emma and thanks to the current donations they're able to stay another 2 nights! Thank you all so much for donating/sharing and the prayers. Marissa and Emma are currently being interviewed and their story will air this evening on channel 4.
UPDATE
Everyone has been asking about Marissa and Emmas needs/clothing size. Emma is a size 7/8 and size 2 in shoes, and Marissa is small/medium in shirts and prefers to only wear leggings size small. They are also in need of cat food, any kind would be appreciated! They're also in need of everything and currently taking donation drop off at the hotel, or I'm able to take donation drop offs at my home in Slippery Rock.She is waiting to hear back from a landlord about a possible place, but still has to figure out deposit and everything. I have also had a few people ask about what hotel they're staying at and possibly calling in donations so they can stay longer. They're at the super 8 on route 8. Thank you everyone who has reached out, donated and sent prayers! They're appreciated!
