Help the Barrios Family Rebuild After a Devastating Flood

Hi everyone,

I’m reaching out to ask for your help for my brother, his wife Vicky, and their four amazing kids, who are going through an incredibly tough time.

A city pipe recently burst, causing their house to flood and leaving them with significant damage to their home and belongings. This heartbreaking event has displaced the family, including their youngest son, Phillipe, who is autistic and thrives on stability and routine. They’ve been displaced to a hotel for a week and are now searching for an Airbnb to stay in while figuring out how to recover from this devastating situation.

To make matters worse, the family’s insurance has denied their claim, leaving them to cover all the damages on their own. The path to rebuilding their home has become overwhelming and costly, far beyond anything they could have prepared for. This is a journey they never expected to face, and they need our support now more than ever.

About the Family
Andres is not just a father but a role model in his community. He’s a soccer coach and the director of the Roadrunners Soccer Club, where he inspires young athletes every day. Through his dedication, he teaches more than just soccer—he instills discipline, teamwork, and resilience in his players.

Vicky is the rock of their family. While she has been successful in her career in Telecommunications, her greatest achievement is being an incredible mom, not only to their two teenage boys but especially to the youngest Phillipe, their autistic son. Vicky works tirelessly to create an environment where Phillipe can thrive, excelling in his development and growth.

This family has always been so giving to family and friends, and now they need our help to get through this incredibly challenging time. Any amount you can give will make a difference. If you’re unable to donate, sharing this campaign with others would be deeply appreciated.

Thank you for your kindness and generosity. Let’s come together to support Andres, Vicky, and their family as they work to rebuild their lives.

The Devastating Impact
The flooding destroyed many of their belongings, their eldest daughter's room was downstairs and completely destroyed. The emotional and financial toll has been overwhelming, but they are determined to keep their family together and strong through this crisis.

How You Can Help
Your support would mean the world to this loving, hardworking family. Funds raised will go toward:

Temporary housing costs (Airbnb, hotel stays)
Costs for legal assistance and rebuilding their home from damages
Replacing essential belongings lost in the flood
Any unforeseen expenses during this time of crisis



With gratitude,
Brisia
