Help Family of 8 Rebuild After House Fire

Help Family of 8 Rebuild After House Fire

On March 5th, my sister and her family experienced something no one ever truly prepares for — a devastating house fire that turned their lives upside down in an instant. In a matter of minutes, the place they called home was filled with smoke, flames, and chaos. Watching the fire tear through the walls where they laughed, prayed, cooked meals, and made memories was not only heartbreaking — it was traumatizing.

Thankfully, they all made it out safely. But the emotional and financial aftermath has been overwhelming. Since the fire, they have been living in a hotel for over a month, trying to piece their lives back together while dealing with the uncertainty of not having a place to truly call home.

This unexpected tragedy has hit especially hard for my sister and her partner. She have had to put work on hold to handle everything that came after — insurance, temporary housing, basic needs, and taking care of her family’s emotional well-being. The stress and financial strain have been unlike anything they have ever faced.

Their home is currently under reconstruction and they have been told it may take 4 to 6 months before they can return. Until then, we're doing everything we can to help them stay strong, hopeful, and grounded but also try to provide as much support as we can.

This GoFundMe is not just about replacing lost belongings — it’s about helping my sister and her little village survive this season of hardship and uncertainty. Donations will go toward temporary housing costs, essential daily expenses, and helping them regain some sense of stability until they can safely return home.

If you’ve ever experienced a moment where life threw something unexpected your way, I hope their story resonates with you. Any amount helps, and if you're unable to give, please consider sharing their story with your network.

From the bottom of my heart — thank you for reading, supporting, and keeping them in your prayers.

With love and gratitude,

Coleman Family
