Nephew in PR needs our help

Donation protected




Our nephew Eric and his family live in Puerto Rico and are facing devastation. After the hurricane hit, they were left without power. Food has been rationed to one meal a day. Eric has to stand guard at night so other desperate people don’t break into his house looking for supplies. Their very safety is threatened on a daily basis.
Eric and his girlfriend Nashley have made the difficult choice to leave everything behind and move to the States with his 10 year old son Damian. I just received news that they were able to book a flight out of P.R. 10 days from now. They will only be able to take what they can fit into a suitcase. There are many challenges ahead as they start a new life with little more than the clothes on their backs. I cannot imagine being in their situation and how difficult it will be to leave behind their home, friends, Damian’s school, and basically their entire lives.
Friends and family have been asking how they can help and where to send money. If you are able to do so, please send a donation. The funds collected will be used to buy clothes, food, and essentials and help them to start over. Any amount will be truly appreciated!
