Hi everyone,

My name is Lauren, and along with my future sister-in-law Camryn, we are raising funds to support the Bayona family after a heartbreaking tragedy. Around 2 a.m. Monday, a fire tore through the rental duplex where the Bayona family had lived in where they built their lives in over the past 19 years. Within moments, everything they owned was gone. Thankfully, everyone made it out safely, but they have lost their home, belongings, and sense of normalcy overnight.

The Bayonas are one of the most hardworking, kind, and generous families we know. They are the type of people who are always the first to lend a helping hand to others, and now it’s our turn to show up for them. They are facing the long and difficult road of rebuilding their lives from scratch — finding temporary housing, replacing essentials, and recovering from the emotional toll of this unimaginable loss.

We are asking our community, friends, and anyone moved by their story to help however you can. No donation is too small — every dollar truly makes a difference. Even if you’re unable to give financially, sharing this fundraiser helps tremendously and means the world to us.

Let’s come together to remind the Bayona family that they are not alone, and that love and community can bring light even in the darkest times.

Thank you all so much for your generosity, prayers, and support. ❤️

— Lauren & Camryn
