Hi everyone,

I’m reaching out with a heavy heart to share that on 3/16 at 3:53 am, I experienced a devastating house fire that has left me with almost nothing. Thankfully, the kitties and I made it out safely at the last second, but I lost my home, personal belongings, and so many precious memories.

I am incredibly grateful for the support and kindness I’ve already received from friends and neighbors, but the road to rebuilding my life is going to be a long and difficult one. I’m facing the overwhelming task of replacing essential items and beginning the long process of rebuilding my home.

I know times are tough for everyone, but if you’re able to contribute—no matter how small—it would mean the world to me. Every dollar will go toward securing clothing, food, and the essentials I need to get back on my feet. But mainly to help rebuild my home since insurance will not cover enough. If you can’t donate, please consider sharing this with others. Your support, prayers, and encouragement mean more to me than words can ever express.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you so much for helping me through this incredibly difficult time. I appreciate every single one of you!
