Galileo Wang and his Grandmother

Hi we are the Tisa's and we are asking for help for our neighbors who have lost everything in a multiple alarm house Fire.

On Sunday, February 5th, at approximately 7:15 am, our 23 yr old neighbor Galileo Wang awakened to his room filled with smoke. He quickly jumped into action, knowing he had very little time to save his 80 yr old grandmother.

He remarkably jumped out of his 2nd story window to a ladder leading to the roof and managed to climb back into her bedroom and get her out through a window, onto a smaller roof where they jumped to the ground where he made sure she fell onto him to break her fall. Once he got her safely away from the fire, he called 911.

Galileo's parents live in Taiwan, but he has lived here his entire life, being raised by his elderly grandparents. Unfortunately, he lost his grandfather suddenly and has been the only caretaker for his grandmother while still attending Rutgers University in New Brunswick where he Studies Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering.

He works his summers as an apprentice for an engineering firm to pay his tuition.

After his grandfather died they could no longer afford homeowners insurance.

Their home was totally destroyed and they lost EVERYTHING. They will need to have the home torn down before they can rebuild.

This fund would mean the world to him and his grandmother and we would like to thank any/all donors in advance. It is an honor to receive these charities and we thank you with our utmost appreciation.

HE IS TRULY A HERO!
