Support Kristin after a fire destroyed her home

Please help support Kristin Suggs after she lost her home and nearly all of her belongings when a fire destroyed her condo building in Abingdon, Maryland on May 22.


Kristin was several states away the night of the fire. When she returned home she found her building condemned by the fire marshal and her belongings destroyed by the water and smoke damage. She lost just about everything she had.


Kristin has a long, daunting challenge ahead of her. Her initial steps are finding a temporary place to stay, replacing and cleaning clothes, buying a new bed, getting a replacement laptop, and starting to manage the insurance claims process. It is an overwhelming task that is likely to take months and leave her with a large gap between what insurance will cover and the out-of-pocket costs that are already accumulating.


Kristin can use our support to show her that she doesn't have to go through this alone. She can use our support whether it is emotional, spiritual, and, if you feel it is appropriate, financial. 


Thank you for considering giving to Kristin to help her recover from the fire that destroyed her home and belongings. All gifts are deeply appreciated and show your support.


Kristin is an active member of Freedom Church often playing guitar on the worship team. She has been serving on the Freedom Dream Team for over 15 years.


The entrance to Kristin's building. Her unit had extensive water damage. Water was 6 inches deep on the floor and was running through the walls, holes in the ceiling, ductwork, and ceiling fixtures. There was nothing in the condo that wasn't affected by the water and smoke.


The missing section of roof is above Kristin's unit.
