For a Family Who Lost Their Home and Their Pets
Donation protected
Hello Everyone,
My name is Olivia Kennedy and I work with a great guy named James. James and his family just experienced quite possibly the most tragic weekend possible.
On Saturday, James was rushed to the hospital by ambulance, as his appendix ruptured and he required emergency surgery. Thankfully, he made it to the hospital in time and he is expected to make a full recovery.
At approximately 8:30pm last night (Sunday October 7), while James was in this hospital, with his family by his side, their neighbours called them to let him know that their house had caught fire. By the time help was able to arrive, it was too late. Their four dogs (Jake, Jasper, Juno and Jojo) were inside the house and did not make it. All four of them passed from smoke inhalation (thank God it wasn't the alternative).
Not only did they lose their home, but they also lost their family. Due to his recent surgery, and the loss of their home, they will be off work for the next few weeks as they heal and deal with the reality of rebuilding their lives.
At this point, I am just trying to help raise some money to help them get back on their feet again as the process to rebuild will be lengthy.
Anything you can spare would be greatly appreciated, even if it is just a share. I would like to get these funds to them ASAP as they only have the clothes on their backs.
Thank you in advance for any help you can spare!
Here is the article, if you haven't seen it.
