9 I11 US Army Iraq Veteran Loses All to House Fire

Donation protected

We have set up this campaign reaching out on behalf of our next door neighbor of many years: Chad K., a US Army Veteran who volunteered + deployed overseas to serve in combat following the 9/11 attacks;  We are trying to raise support following his sudden loss due to a tragic house fire which occurred early Sunday morning at his Rockford, IL home.

Regrettably, he has lost absolutely everything to the fire and is left with only himself and his pet dog. With learning that he will receive no insurance or prospects of assistance going forward, we plead for any support that can be provided to him to help restore even a small semblance of hope going forward during his tragic time. Please consider supporting a military veteran and our good neighbor for his uncertain and difficult road ahead.
