Help Emilie & Josh Rebuild After Devastating Medford Fire

Hi everyone,

This is Nick and Brianna Valente reaching out on behalf of Nick’s aunt, Emilie, and his cousin, Josh Brun after a devastating house fire changed everything overnight.

On March 18th, a massive fire tore through their home in Medford, Massachusetts, the same home they had lived in for nearly 20 years, filled with memories, traditions, and a lifetime of belongings.

In a matter of minutes, it was all gone.

Thankfully, Emilie and Josh made it out safely, which is what matters most, but they lost the majority of their belongings. Like so many families in situations like this, there was little time to grab anything as the fire spread quickly through the home.

Now, they are facing the reality of starting completely over.

They need to find a new place to live, replace essential items like clothing and furniture, and rebuild their lives from scratch. After 20 years in one home, this is not just a move it’s a total reset.

If you know Emilie, you know strong she is. She has always been someone who shows up for others without hesitation. Now, she’s the one who needs support.

We are hoping to raise $7,000 to help cover:

• A security deposit and first month’s rent

• Basic household items and furniture

• Clothing and everyday necessities

• Immediate expenses during this transition

Every donation, no matter how small, will go directly toward helping them get back on their feet.

If you’re not able to donate, sharing this page would mean so much.

Thank you for taking the time to read this and for any support you can give it truly means more than words can express.

With gratitude,

Nick & Brianna Valente
