Bloom Family House Fire Recovery

Donation protected
If you have ever been to the Kendallville, IN Applebee's, I guarantee you that you've met Michelle. She's been an Apple Buddy for over 15 years and is the kindest, most caring and generous person you've ever met - truly a heart of gold. She is always willing to help those in need and is a pillar in the Kendallville area community.
Unfortunately, devastating fires can happen to anyone and on Monday 12/14/15 a disastrous fire totally destroyed Michelle's family's house. 
Michelle's daughter, Haley (14 years old), was home sick from school. She was upstairs and saw the lights flicker. Due to this being unpredictable Indiana, she thought that it was just the high winds and weather. Then, she heard this weird noise coming from downstairs. She went downstairs and into her bedroom to check and saw that the electrical panel was blazing on fire - only inches from where her head rests when she sleeps.
Haley immediately ran out of her family's home and dialed 911. She barely stepped out of her house when the basement windows, her bedroom windows, exploded and the entire house incinerated. 
Rocky, the family dog, was already outside when the fire started to devastate the house but Haley's pet turtle, Dylan, was not so lucky. 
Michelle, her husband Jeff who's the Manager at Bristol Foods, 8th grader Haley & Rocky the Dog are all safe & alive but their home filled with memories is completely destroyed. They did hear that there is a possibility of saving two family heirloom pieces of furniture with some creative upholstery & restoration work.
Please help provide the Bloom family with some peace of mind this holiday season. It couldn't have happened at a worse time of year. The fire totally devastated their home but it's also wreaked havoc on the family's mental state but because it's Michelle who approaches life with complete optimism and hope, you would never know what she & her family are currently going through.Any little bit you could spare would tremendously help. The Bloom family would be very appreciative of your support in whatever capacity that may look like. Funds raised will be used to help rebuild their life & home.
