Families in financial need due to apartment fire

On January 25, 2023, a fire broke out at Timber Knoll Apartments in Moline, Illinois, due to arson. Sixteen units were burned, and several individuals were treated for smoke inhalation. QCAIR, Inc. had four immigrant families impacted by this fire reach out for assistance. These families lost all their belongings in the fire and need financial help to replace their possessions, get new apartments and get back on their feet.

All families are grateful to God that everyone is safe and alive, but they feel the burden of losing all their possessions and belongings. Each family is living with friends while trying to find another apartment. Unfortunately, none of the families had rental insurance and are starting from scratch. Each family would like to express gratitude for any assistance and hope that God bless you for any help you provide them.
