Help after a family home fire!

Hi, my name is Jenny(Jennifer)  Oliver, and I am fund raising to support a local Ararat family who are close to my heart and an important part of the Ararat community.

Brian and Jacqui Harrison and their 7 children, Mackenzie, Jai, Aria, Zafirah, Veruca, Levi and Eli lost their family home to a devastating fire overnight Saturday/Sunday 18th/19th of November. The family lost most of their beloved pets and their possessions leaving with only the clothes on their backs.

The fire took hold in minutes allowing them only time to get out without being able to save anything, not even shoes on their feet.

Unfortunately, due to financial circumstances there is no insurance to cover their loss. The home is to be demolished within the month.

The money from this fundraiser will be used to cover demolition, rebuild their lives and get a roof over their heads.

Most of you will know Brian from the shire and his community interests and Jacqui is a freelance music teacher at a lot of local schools and shares a music studio  with another Ararat resident. She is also  a creator of crafts (one of these being making Halti'', collars and leads for Annies's dog training). The children have been involved in a lot of local enterprises, especially Zaf lately in the Gateway festival queen fundraising quest.

I'm asking the people of Ararat and surrounds to open their hearts and their wallets to give to this family.

Please share this fundraiser far and wide so that we can do the best we can to help get them back on their feet.
