My name is Blaine, and I’m reaching out because my family and I are facing a really difficult time. Recently, a fire broke out and completely destroyed my garage, then spread to my house. Thankfully, we’re all safe, but the damage has left us without heat and struggling to get back on our feet. I’ve already spent everything I had just to get the electricity turned back on, but there’s still so much more to do.

Right now, we have no heat in our home, and I had to throw away all of our food after the fire. The expenses are overwhelming—just feeding my kids is a challenge, let alone trying to replace the essentials we lost. The funds from this fundraiser will help me get the gas turned back on, restock our kitchen, and start to replace the things we lost in the fire. Every bit of support will make a huge difference for us as we try to rebuild.

I desperately need help, and I’m so grateful for any support you can give. I thank God every day that my family is okay, and I want to thank everyone who is willing to help us through this. Your kindness means more than words can say.
