Help Jamie and Arden Rebuild After Devastating Fire
Jamie is a devoted single mom, and her world was turned upside down when a fire took everything.
Now, she and her young son, Arden, are starting over with nothing but the clothes on their backs.

Jamie has faced more than her fair share of life’s hardships. She’s a fighter — a woman who has always put her son first and met every challenge with strength, grace, and quiet determination. But this loss is overwhelming. In a matter of minutes, years of memories, possessions, and stability were reduced to ashes.

They are safe, but they have nothing left.

What Happened
A fire tore through Jamie’s home, leaving nothing behind. While we are so thankful that both Jamie and Arden made it out safely, they have lost everything — clothes, furniture, household essentials, Arden’s toys, and all the little comforts that make a home feel like home.

They are currently staying with a friend temporarily, but the road ahead is long, and starting over from scratch is incredibly expensive.

️How You Can Help
This fundraiser will help cover:
  • Immediate needs like clothing, food, and toiletries
  • Temporary housing and security deposits
  • Furniture, bedding, and household essentials
  • Arden’s toys, clothes, and everyday basics
  • Any unexpected costs as they rebuild

Every donation — no matter the size — brings Jamie and Arden one step closer to regaining a sense of stability and peace. If you’re not in a position to give, please consider sharing this page. Your support, prayers, and kindness mean the world.

A Note About Physical Donations:
So many of you have reached out wanting to help in any way you can, and Jamie is incredibly touched by the kindness and generosity coming her way. At this time, she isn’t able to accept physical donations like furniture, or household items, as she doesn’t have a permanent place to store them. Once she begins the rebuilding process and has space again, we’ll share an update with specific needs.

For now, financial support is the most helpful way to ease the burden and give Jamie and Arden some breathing room as they navigate this difficult road.

Let’s come together and lift this incredible mom and her sweet boy up in their time of need. They are not alone — they have all of us.
