Please help support the Russo family after a devastating house fire.

On Monday night, February 8, a fire broke out in their home, forcing them to escape with only the clothes they were wearing. Thankfully, everyone is okay and now safe, but they lost their home and all their belongings. Tragically, their family dog did not survive the fire.

As renters, they are now facing the financial and emotional challenge of starting over from scratch.

The Red Cross provided some immediate assistance, but it only covers a small portion of what they will need in the weeks and months ahead as they work to rebuild their lives.

Monetary donations will go directly to the family to help with the costs of temporary housing, food, medications, clothing, shoes, and other essential daily expenses.

Clothing donations are also welcome and greatly appreciated:

• Women — pants sizes 2–3 and 16, shirts small and XL, shoes 7 and 9

• Men — shirts 2X–3X, pants 48–50, shoes size 13

Every donation and share makes a difference. Thank you for your support!
