Ashwood Apt fire

Entire apartment building went up in flames Thursday night. So many people lost everything they had Please donate I am Shelly Buffington a fellow neighbor trying to do what I can to help! Update: We will now be working with Operation Nine Reindeer to help supply the children with laptops for the school year ! I received confirmation that I can send the money through Venmo to their organization. They are being supported by North Coventry Police Dept. If you have any questions let me know. Below is their post and information From one of our amazing residents! I'm working with North Coventry Elementary and Operation Nine Reindeer, which is a 501 c(3) organization, to obtain 10 laptops for the elementary students that were victims in last night's fire. The youngest is starting kindergarten in September. I learned last night that these kids were upset and worried about starting school because they lost their laptops. One family had literally just purchased one for their child. With that said, I'm organizing a collection in order for Operation Nine Reindeer to purchase 10 laptops hopefully at a discount but am still working on this. Also, for any donations over $250, a receipt will be provided. All donation checks can be made to Operation Nine Reindeer or sent electronically to me in the following ways: If using AppleCash please send to [phone redacted]; Venmo, please send to @Karen-Sterner-1 and; if using PayPal please send to [email redacted] Any remaining funds will be shared with the families of the fire. Thank you for your continued support! Karen Sterner
