Help Lance & his Family Recover From a House Fire

Donation protected
Hello, I'm creating this GoFundMe on behalf of my good friend Lance, who is a US Army Veteran, and his family. They had fallen upon hard financial times in the past year and, as a result, had to move out of their house. Then, this past Saturday, April 8th, as they were going through the process of moving out, the house caught fire and partially burned down. Also, since they did not own the house anymore, they didn’t have Homeowners insurance, and consequently, nothing that burned in the fire will be covered. Thankfully, nobody got hurt in the fire, but it's still a devastating blow to the family, as almost all of their possessions have been burnt beyond recovery. You can read more about it in the news story here.



Then, a few days later on Monday, April 10th, their dog, Benji, escaped and was struck by a car and died tragically. Already dealing with the fire and all the curveballs that life has thrown them recently, having a beloved family pet pass away on top of all that has been a lot for the family to endure.



If you can find it in your heart, any donation would be deeply appreciated. The hope is to be able to provide their family some relief as they try to get back on their feet and recover from these tragic events.

Also, please share the GoFundMe link with your friends and on social media so it can be as successful as possible. Thank you so much ahead of time for your donations.

Just wanted to thank everyone for all the donations so far! It's very much appreciated from me and of course Lance and his family. Thank you so much.
