Help Billy & Bette Rebuild

Donation protected
Below is my best friend Billy and Bette's story. Billy and Bette were there for me during one of the hardest times in my life. They would give the shirts off their backs to anyone in need, so now is the time for us to do the same...

This is a picture of a 67-year-old man…our dad…taking down the walls of HIS home by hand. The home that HE built by hand over 35 years ago.

Last Tuesday, Haverhill’s sewer pipes were overpowered by the rain from the storm which made ACTUAL sewage come up through my parent's finished basement toilet. EVERYTHING that the water touched needs to be thrown out and every single wall in their basement needs to be ripped out at least 2 feet up. They have lost so much. Not to mention all of the stuff they lost that can’t be replaced like sentimental family heirlooms.

Their insurance is not helping and the city of Haverhill is not helping. They will be paying for everything that they need to replace out of pocket for something that wasn’t their fault. They need to pay for the emergency service company that came in on Wednesday to rip out the carpets and flooring and put in dehumidifiers to prevent the bacteria from growing (not exactly something we could say no to!). The city should be covering at least that cost. As well as the cost of throwing all of this stuff away. Furniture, flooring, drywall, insulation etc.

Please consider helping my best friend! The funds will be used to rebuild their whole first floor.
