<div>On the early morning of New Year’s Day, tragedy struck when my parents’ home in Bartlett, Texas, was completely destroyed by fire. In a matter of hours, everything they owned was lost.
</div>
<div>My parents are 63 years old, lifelong church-going, hardworking people who have always given back to their community. They escaped safely along with their pets, but sadly, one beloved chinchilla did not survive.
</div>
<div>The fire took everything — clothes, family photos, personal keepsakes, glasses, dentures, and all daily necessities. My mother currently needs replacement dentures, which is one of our most immediate and pressing needs.
</div>
<div>Despite this devastating loss, my parents are trying to remain strong. My mother is the owner of El Rinconcito, a local food truck in Jarrell, Texas, and she is determined to keep working and moving forward — but rebuilding from nothing is overwhelming.
</div>
<div>We are humbly asking for help to cover essential needs such as:
</div>
<div>Replacement dentures and medical necessities
</div>
<div>Clothing and personal items
</div>
<div>Temporary living expenses
</div>
<div>Replacing critical documents and household basics
</div>
<div>Any amount, no matter how small, will make a meaningful difference. If you’re unable to donate, please consider sharing this page to help us reach others.
</div>
<div>From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for your kindness, prayers, and support during this incredibly difficult time.
</div>
<div>1/7/26: We’ve updated the goal as we better understand the true costs of rebuilding and replacing essential items. Thank you again for all of your support.
</div>

</div>
<div>UPDATE 1/5/26:
</div>
<div>We are overwhelmed by the kindness and support so far. Thank you for every donation, share, and prayer. We are slowly beginning the process of replacing essential items and arranging medical needs, including dentures. We will continue to post updates as we move forward. ❤️
