Help AnnMarie Rebuild After Fire Tragedy

Donation protected
I am reaching out on behalf of my mom, who recently lost her home in a devastating fire:

Dear Friends, Family, and Kind Strangers,

Our world was turned upside down when a fire broke out in our row home in Philadelphia. The house next door caught fire around 9 PM, and though firefighters arrived and eventually left, we were told our home was safe to re-enter. Unfortunately, no one checked inside our house or the attachment to the fire-damaged home.

At around 2:30 AM, I woke up to a nightmare—our home was filled with thick smoke, zero visibility, and unbearable heat. We barely escaped as flames once again engulfed the house next door, ultimately making our own home uninhabitable. It has now been condemned.

Though we are incredibly grateful to be alive, we have lost so much. My son, our beloved pets (our dog and two cats), and I have been displaced. Many of our belongings were destroyed. While insurance will help with rebuilding, we are facing significant immediate expenses for basic necessities.

We are asking for help to get through this incredibly difficult time. Any donation—big or small—will go directly toward helping us replace essentials and get back on our feet.

Thank you for your kindness, generosity, and support. Even if you can’t donate, sharing this fundraiser would mean the world to us.

With gratitude,
AnnMarie & Family
