Our dear friend Brandon had to evacuate his apartment in Downtown Kingston last week, just a few days before Christmas. A fire started in the business next to his building and quickly spread to his apartment (above A-One). Fortunately nobody was hurt, but his building was severely damaged and he hasn't had access to his apartment since the fire. He is still waiting for information about his belongings, but considering that the fire burned for 10+ hours and there was a fire hose running into his window it's unlikely he'll be able to recover much.

We're hoping to collect a bit of cash to help Brandon with short-term expenses as he scrambles to find a new place to stay and begins to replace what was lost. Anything helps!

Here are a few articles about the fire:
