<div>Life-Altering Burns After Tragic 4th of July Explosion – Please Help Jennifer Heal

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Hi, my name is Jodie LeFever, and I’m the older sister of Jennifer Schulte. I never imagined I’d be writing something like this, but our family is facing a heartbreaking and life-changing situation — and we are humbly asking for your help in any way you can give it.

</div>

</div>

<div>What Happened

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>On July 4th, 2025, Jennifer was visiting a friend’s pole barn when a violent propane explosion occurred due to a gas leak. She was caught in the fire upstairs and had to fight her way through the flames to reach the stairs and escape. In the process, she suffered third-degree burns covering approximately 60% of her body.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>She was transported from Alma, Michigan, to Hurley Medical Center in Flint, where she has already undergone multiple surgeries, with many more still ahead. The doctors miraculously saved her life — but her journey to healing will be long, painful, and filled with unknowns.

</div>

<div>What We’re Facing

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Our family has been doing everything we can to support her:

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>• Our mom is driving back and forth from Harrison to Flint nearly every other day just to sit by her side and keep her spirits up.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>• Our sister in Florida is unable to afford travel.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>• Our father is in Wyoming, also unable to return to Michigan at this time.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>• Jennifer had been living in a small camper at our brother’s house — but with her new physical needs, that will no longer be a safe or sustainable option.

</div>

<div>About Jennifer

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Jennifer is the mother of two beautiful women and the grandmother of two brand-new baby girls. Her family means the world to her — but her love and care extend far beyond her own.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Over the years, Jennifer has opened her home to countless people in need. If someone was homeless, hungry, lost, or struggling, Jen gave them shelter, food, and compassion — even when she had very little herself.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>She would feed others before feeding herself.

</div>

<div>She would give away her last dollar if it meant helping someone else.

</div>

<div>To Jen, “no” wasn’t in her vocabulary when it came to helping someone survive.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Her heart is enormous. Her generosity has touched so many. And now, she’s the one who needs that love and kindness returned to her.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>We Are Asking for Help

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Jennifer is still at high risk for infection, exhaustion, and ongoing complications. We are asking for donations and support to help cover:

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>• Travel costs for family to stay involved and by her side

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>• Burn care supplies, recovery clothing, and special bedding

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>• Safe, accessible housing and home modifications

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>• Financial support for ongoing medical expenses and care

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>• And one special thing: Jen absolutely LOVES rocks — unique, beautiful, cool rocks of any kind. If you have a special one to share, it would lift her spirits more than you know. It may sound simple, but to her, it means comfort, strength, and connection.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>If you’d like to send a card, a rock, or a small gesture of support, please message me directly through this page.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Please — Anything Helps

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Whether it’s a donation, a prayer, a kind message, or even just sharing this page, every bit of love and support matters.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Jennifer is fighting for her life and future — and she shouldn’t have to fight alone.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>From our hearts to yours,

</div>

<div>Thank you.

</div>

<div>— Jodie &amp; Family
