Hi everyone,

I never thought I’d find myself in this position, but on April 14th 2025 , my apartment was completely destroyed in a devastating fire. In just a matter of hours, I lost everything — my home, my clothes, furniture, important documents, and so many irreplaceable personal items and memories.

Thankfully, I made it out safely, and I’m beyond grateful to be alive. But now I’m facing the difficult task of starting over from scratch. I’m currently staying with friends/family while trying to figure out my next steps, and the financial burden of replacing everything and finding a new place to live is overwhelming.

I’m humbly asking for help from my family and friends to get back on my feet. Any donation — no matter how small — will go directly toward essentials like temporary housing, clothing, food, and the costs of moving into a new place. If you’re unable to give, sharing this campaign would mean the world to me.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your kindness and support during this incredibly difficult time.

With love and gratitude,

JR
