I am Kaitlyn Chavez and I am 16 years old. I run the art account @CarnivalBarf on Instagram. Read the highlight titled "my situation" for more details about our story.
In an unfortunate event, my family and I's home caught on fire on Thursday, February 18th, 2021 at around 4 PM. The cause of the fire is still undetermined, according to the fire department. It began in the garage, and only spread from there.
No one was physically hurt, thankfully. However, almost all of our possessions are now gone. As an artist, all the artwork that I've created since age 5 have been turned to ashes. Close to nothing in my own room was able to survive. So many sentimental items were destroyed. We've salvaged anything we can.
We are beyond grateful that no one got injured. The emotional trauma of losing everything is definitely something we will need to heal from.
I'm starting this fundraiser to help my family buy necessities and to re-purchase some items that had high sentimental value.
Thank you for reading.
