Help Michael recover from a devastating house fire

In the early morning of September 23rd, 2026, Michael’s house caught on fire. As his house burned, he escaped the by jumping out of a second story window. The entire house was destroyed, and he lost everything in it.

Michael is a chef and a long-time member of the Tarrytown and Irvington, NY communities who has provided food during disaster relief efforts during Hurricane Sandy, the 2013 Moore tornado in Oklahoma, and during the pandemic. He never expected to be subjected to a personal disaster.

All donations will support Michael’s recovery from the house fire – the parts not covered by his insurance. If there is more donated than what he ultimately needs, he will use any extra funds to continue to help community members in their times of crisis.
