Hi everyone,

I am reaching out for assistance on behalf of my single mother and my four younger siblings (ages 6, 6, 13, and 16). Unfortunately, we lost our home in a devastating fire on Althea Street in Providence, near the Jastram Firehouse, early this morning.

While I am profoundly grateful that my entire family is safe, the fire was a total tragedy for our home. The structure sustained significant fire, smoke, and water damage, resulting in a complete loss of all personal belongings. In a matter of hours, we were left with absolutely nothing but the clothes we were wearing.

This loss is overwhelming. My mother is now faced with the immediate challenge of finding new housing and replacing everything a family of six needs—from basic necessities like clothing, shoes, toiletries, and school supplies for the children, to securing a new, safe place to live.

I am focused on helping my family start over and rebuild our lives from the ground up. Every donation will go directly toward providing for the essential needs of my mother and my siblings as they navigate this crisis.

Any support—monetary, resource-based, or even just sharing our story and sending your prayers—is deeply appreciated during this incredibly overwhelming time.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for helping us begin the long process of healing and rebuilding.
