The Bellards – the family of my son’s best friend, Dylan - were displaced from their Wallingford home due to a house fire on the evening of March 9, 2020. The Wallingford Fire Department was able to put out the fire, however, not before it destroyed the structure.  The family of 6 - Heather and Matt Bellard, their children, Nate (Boy-17), Dylan (Boy-14), Averie (Girl-12), and Tristyn (Girl-5) - along with their dog and cat all made it out safely (though the location of the cat is currently unknown as she also fled the house before she could be caught).  The family has lost everything aside from the clothes on their backs at the time they fled their home and they have been advised that nothing is salvageable.  This Go Fund Me is to help support them in any way possible.  Any amount that you or your friends are able to donate will go directly to the family to help them get back up on their feet again. 

 Thank you for anything you are able to contribute – no amount is too small!  If we all contribute a little, we can come together to do something big for this Wallingford family!  Please feel free to share this link, as well!

Donations of all kinds - clothes, personal items, toys, etc... are also being accepted.  Donations can be dropped off at the following locations:
