Help Lennie and Nancy Rebuild After Fire

My brother, Brian, and I are raising money for our elderly father, Lennie, and our heroic stepmom, Nancy, who suffered a house fire on August 4, 2025.

The fire started with an explosion near the electrical meter and quickly escalated to flames which spread through the kitchen and attic. Thankfully, the explosion woke Nancy, and her quick instincts led to the safe evacuation of herself, my dad, and their grandson, Layton. Unfortunately, because the fire was in the attic, it took longer for firefighters to extinguish it, causing significant damage.

They were displaced from their home and the majority of their belongings are ruined from the fire, smoke, and water. Thankfully, they have settled into a rental home for the next year or so during the rebuild. They filled two dumpsters with damaged furniture and other belongings. Right now they are slowly getting back on their feet and are facing many unexpected expenses. Please donate anything you can to help support them through this devastating time. Thank you!
