Help Tamaka and Her Children Rebuild After Devastating fire
Donation protected
Dear Friends, Family, and Kind Strangers,
On January 20, 2025, my sister, Tamaka Yarbrough, and her two children, JaQ’kari and Jessie, experienced a devastating apartment fire in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Thankfully, they escaped unharmed, but the fire destroyed all their belongings, leaving them with nothing but the clothes on their backs.
As they begin the arduous journey of rebuilding their lives, we are reaching out to our community for support. The funds raised will be used for:
• Immediate Needs: Clothing, food, and daily essentials.
• Temporary Housing: Securing a safe place to stay while they find a new permanent home.
• Furniture and Household Items: Replacing beds, kitchenware, and other necessities.
Every contribution, no matter the size, will make a significant impact on their path to recovery. If you’re unable to donate, sharing this campaign with your network would mean the world to us.
We are profoundly grateful for your support during this challenging time.
With heartfelt thanks,
