Immediate Needs Following Devastating Fire

Donation protected
Hi, my name is Char and I live 5 doors down from the O’Brien family. Until they experienced a
devastating fire at their home last week, I did not really know them. Although the circumstances that brought me to meet them are terrible, I am so glad to have met them. My husband and I went through the exact same thing that the O’Brien family is currently going through 8 years ago and because of our house fire it drew me to them wanting to help, support and guide them through this terrifying and life altering experience. They are a STRONG family
of 5 who fortunately are all ok and were not physically harmed in the fire, but they lost EVERYTHING and will have to rebuild their home and rebuild themselves emotionally! We are starting this GoFundMe to help get their immediate needs met. Since my family of 5 has been through this, we know exactly what it is like dealing with insurance adjusters and the time it takes for help to come through if everything ends up being reimbursed. I want to help
alleviate some of their immediate stress so they can focus on their children and getting through the stressful aftermath of the fire. Please give what you can! The O’Brien family is reluctant to ask for help, but my experience KNOWS that they need help! And they would be overwhelmed with appreciation for any help offered. Thank you. so so much ❤️
