Help Faith & Dain Rebuild After Fire

Donation protected
Hello! My name is Kate & my friends really need help. My good friends Faith & Dain have been apart of my life for well over 10 years now. Today, a huge tragedy happened & their home caught on fire. Their house is a total loss & as of right now not too sure on how much stuff can even be saved. Meaning, they have only the clothes & shoes on their back & items that were already with them. They have four dogs & one cat, and faith is also taking care of her 17 year old brother since their mom tragically passed away. Faith was also recently laid off her job from John Deere. I’m making this go fund me in hopes to raise money so they can replace items they need such as clothes, toiletries, dishes, & items for their pets. They also need somewhere to stay as they have five pets total & a minor to care for. My friends truly cannot catch a break & they are both some of the sweetest, hard working people I’ve ever met & do not deserve this whatsoever. Please donate if you can & if not sharing this could help a ton. Thank you for reading.

**UPDATE** their cat unfortunately didn’t make it due to all the smoke he inhaled. So now they will have even more vet bills due to him going to the emergency vet. I also just want to add that Dain is a 911 operator & took the call for his own home being on fire… my friends have had such a traumatic day, & really a traumatic last few years. Thank you SO much to everyone who has donated or shared this. It means more than you know!
