Help the Doblers after their Home Flooded

Hi, my name is Carrie and I am fundraising for our best friends, Sean & Stephanie. On June 13, 2022, their home, barn, and entire property flooded. The storm began and water started pooling in the yard as it had occasionally before. They weren't too worried at first because it had happened before, but then the water started rising extremely quickly. They grabbed their 2 children, ages 7 and 8, a few important documents, and the animals they could get off their homestead and went to higher ground immediately.

 

I got the call from Steph about 10 pm. I answered and heard "I need you." Sean and Stephanie are both the kind of people who never want to ask for help but are always there when their friends and family need them. This is our turn to help them.

 

The water has since receded and the damage is extensive. The smell of sewage is prominent. The things left behind aren’t salvageable. They lost their home, barn, a vehicle, mower, ATV, and more. 

They are safe. We are so thankful for that. They lost everything they have worked so hard for, though. Some things are irreplaceable family heirlooms, but some things we can help with. They need clothes, shoes, toys and books for the girls, etc. Things like their favorite blankets and pillows are gone. Their groceries, furniture, and even toothbrushes. Thankfully, they have a temporary place to stay (although not free) and insurance will eventually help.

 

I am asking for your help today to give this amazing family some funds to replace some of what was lost. To help them bridge the gap. To give these girls back the things they lost. I understand that times are difficult for everyone, but if you can’t donate I ask that you please share and keep our friends in your prayers.
