<div>Our family is facing an incredibly heartbreaking situation. My sister Lupe, my mother Maria, my niece Jasmine, and my nephew Damien have lost their home due to a fire.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>My mom had just returned home from our traditional Sunday family breakfast when she smelled smoke. She tried to stop the fire, but while keeping Nyco—my nephew who was staying with her for Christmas—safe, she was only able to get him out of the house. She also managed to save the three dogs: Willie, Roka, and Atlas.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>My nephew’s room was completely destroyed by the fire, and the rest of the home suffered severe smoke damage, making it unlivable. Tragically, there is no insurance. My sister had worked so hard to rebuild this home, which is also the house where my father once lived. We have always called it “Grandpa’s house,” making this loss especially painful for our family.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>At this time, the family is staying with relatives. Finding space has been especially difficult as they are trying to stay together while also caring for their three dogs.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are asking for donations primarily to help recover from the extensive smoke damage so the family can safely reenter the home and rebuild as best we can. Funds will also help cover basic necessities for the family during this time of displacement.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>As if this were not enough, shortly after the fire, Miguel went to wash his clothes for work when he was involved in a serious accident that totaled his work vehicle. The family will need help securing a used work vehicle so he can return to work and continue providing for his family.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Any donation—no matter the amount—along with prayers and shares, is deeply appreciated. Thank you for supporting the Gomez-Sykes family as we navigate this incredibly difficult and overwhelming time.

<div>Nuestra familia está enfrentando una situación profundamente dolorosa. Mi hermana Lupe, mi mamá María, mi sobrina Jasmine y mi sobrino Damien han perdido su hogar a causa de un incendio.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Mi mamá acababa de regresar a casa después de nuestro tradicional desayuno familiar de los domingos cuando le dio el olor a humo. Intentó detener el fuego, pero mientras protegía a Nyco —mi sobrino que se estaba quedando con ella durante la Navidad— solo pudo sacarlo de la casa. También logró salvar a los tres perros: Willie, Roka y Atlas.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>El cuarto de mi sobrino quedó completamente destruido por el incendio, y el resto de la casa sufrió graves daños por el humo, dejándola inhabitable.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Trágicamente, no cuentan con seguro. Mi hermana había trabajado muy duro para reconstruir este hogar, que además es la casa donde vivió mi padre. Siempre la hemos llamado “la casa del abuelo”, lo que hace esta pérdida aún más dolorosa para nuestra familia.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>En este momento, la familia se encuentra hospedándose con familiares. Encontrar espacio ha sido especialmente difícil, ya que están tratando de mantenerse juntos y al mismo tiempo cuidar de sus tres perros.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Estamos solicitando donaciones principalmente para ayudar a recuperarnos de los extensos daños causados por el humo, de modo que la familia pueda volver a entrar a la casa de manera segura y reconstruirla lo mejor posible. Los fondos también ayudarán a cubrir las necesidades básicas de la familia durante este tiempo de desplazamiento.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Como si esto no fuera suficiente, poco después del incendio, Miguel fue a lavar su ropa para ir a trabajar cuando estuvo involucrado en un grave accidente que dejó su vehículo de trabajo como pérdida total.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Actualmente se encuentra en la sala de emergencias y necesita una cirugía de emergencia en la pierna. Una vez que se recupere, la familia necesitará ayuda para conseguir un vehículo de trabajo usado para que pueda regresar a trabajar y seguir proveyendo para su familia.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Cualquier donación —sin importar la cantidad— junto con sus oraciones y el compartir esta ayuda, es profundamente agradecida. Gracias por apoyar a la familia Gómez-Sykes mientras atravesamos este momento tan difícil y abrumador.
</div>
