Help Rebuild Hope: Aid Family Who Lost Everything In Fire

Donation protected
My name is Stephanie-Ann Crisp I'm reaching out today on behalf of Douglas "Wayne" Scales, and his mother Nina Scales.
During the late evening on 10/18/24 the interior of their home located on Texas Ln. in New Boston, Texas unexpectedly caught fire and before long was all but completely engulfed in flames with Nina, and the animals trapped inside.
Without Wayne's quick thinking and the swift arrival of New Boston Fire Department it is almost certain they would no longer be here with us.
After 6 hours New Boston Fire Dept was finally able to extinguish the blaze. All that remained was wreckage and ruin.
They themselves would never dream of asking for help and are far to humble too ever burden anyone by seeking support or aid.
So, I will ask in their stead.
Any donation, no matter how small, even the simple daily sharing of the GoFundMe Link is appreciated beyond measure!

-Update-
A temporary home has been found for them for now, but with the total loss of not only their precious memories but EVERY possession they owned.
They are now faced with the daunting task of rebuilding their lives totally from scratch.
Any funds donated will be used for the following.
  • Paying for emergency veterinary care.
  • Gas
  • Food
  • Renting cleaning equipment
  • Buying cleaning supplies to get the temporary house ready
  • Buying essentially everything they ever owned that we are unable to replace through donations.

Thank you again to anyone who has already donated or shared the link!
Sincerely,
Stephanie Ann Crisp
