Hope for Karah - Townsville House Fire

Donation protected
We are coming together to support Karah, a devoted nurse and single mother of four, whose life was turned upside down by a tragic house fire.
In a matter of moments, the fire destroyed her home and displaced her entire family. Even more heartbreaking, her two youngest children were severely injured and are currently in critical condition, receiving intensive medical care. While Karah has spent her career caring for others, she is now facing the unimaginable—fighting for her children’s lives while having lost the place they once called home.
As a single mother, Karah has always worked tirelessly to provide for her children. Now, she is facing overwhelming challenges all at once: time away from work, temporary housing, replacing basic necessities, and the long road to recovery ahead for her children.

This GoFundMe is being created to help ease some of that burden so she can focus on what matters most—being by her children’s side during this critical time.
Your donations will help with:
-Ongoing treatment
-Temporary housing and living costs
-Clothing, food, and basic necessities
-Recovery and rebuilding after the fire

Any contribution, no matter the size, will make a meaningful difference. If you’re unable to donate, please consider sharing this page and keeping this family in your thoughts and prayers.
Thank you for your kindness, compassion, and support during this incredibly difficult time.

Message from the family:
We want to sincerely thank the community, hospital staff, emergency services and everyone who has reached out with messages of support during this difficult time.

Our beautiful girls, Evie (13) and Hallie (2), remain in a critical condition. While they are receiving the very best care, their prognosis remains poor, and our family is taking things one moment at a time.
