<div>Hello, my name is Marsha Smith and I am reaching out with a heavy heart to ask for your support for our incredible mother.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Recently, her home in Ocho Rios, Jamaica, was severely damaged in a devastating<strong> arson fire.</strong> While our sister, young niece, and cousins managed to escape without physical injury, the trauma they endured is profound. The fire destroyed the home our mother poured her life savings into, her dream retirement home, and has<strong> displaced</strong> them without the comfort and stability of their home.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Tragically, the house was not insured. On a limited fixed income, Cornelia cannot afford the massive cost of rebuilding. The estimated repairs are <strong>$60,000 CAD ($7 million JMD),</strong> a sum that feels impossible. Our family is doing everything we can to contribute, but we cannot carry this burden alone. Beyond the structure, she lost countless personal belongings, making the loss even more heartbreaking.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Our mother is more than just a homeowner; she is a beloved community elder who has dedicated her retirement to <strong>helping local children </strong>with school supplies, clothes, and food. Now, the pillar of the community needs our help.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are so grateful that our family is safe, but the road to recovery is long. Any contribution, no matter the size, will make a real difference. Please consider donating and sharing her story. Thank you for your kindness and generosity.
</div>
