Single Mother of 5 loses Everything in House Fire

My friend for over 25 years, Mary Ellen, is a Mother of 5 and her home with all contents was destroyed in an electrical fire.

 Her 3 younger children and herself were in the home at the time the fire began. Her  daughter, Adileen who smelled smoke, informed her Mom, which led to a rapid  exit from the home with her 3 younger children and dog.

The electrical fire spread quickly and took several hours for local volunteer fire departments to extinguish. 

Their home is now uninhabitable and all contents within the home were destroyed from the fire as well as the rescue. 

The American Red Cross has provided temporary emergency assistance to the family which is almost depleted. 

Mary Ellen is trying to re-build their lives and provide a stable home environment for her children. 

Any items such as clothing, immediate necessary household items or monetary donations are requested for Mary Ellen and her children to get back on their feet and move forward during this tragedy.

A very blessed thank you to all of the first responders, police officers, paramedics and firefighters
