Our family has been devastated by an unimaginable tragedy. My niece, Samara, lost everything when her home burned to the ground while she was at work. The most heartbreaking part? Her beloved animals—two dogs and two cats—were inside and didn’t survive. They were her family, her children. She is completely shattered.

She had worked so hard to get her own place, and now, in the blink of an eye, it’s all gone. The only belongings she has left are what she took to work that day.

We’re doing everything we can to support her, but she needs help to rebuild her life from scratch. That’s why I’m setting up a GoFundMe—to give her a fresh start, even in the smallest way. If you feel moved to help, any contribution would mean the world to her.

This is really me, so if you have any questions or want to reach out directly, please feel free to call.

Thank you for your kindness and support
