My name is Denise Bowdler, I am one of Tamera Jones best friends.

Some of you may know, and many not yet, that Tamera’s business, http://www.328skinandbody.biz  caught on fire this past Friday morning, April 15. Tamera started her business as a single mom 16 years ago, raising her 2 kids.

Tamera was home sick and received a phone call that her business was on fire. Her entire building was shut down upon her arrival. She was allowed to enter her suite to find that virtually everything she's worked for was lost, but due to the electricity turned off it was most difficult to make an accurate assessment amidst the rubble.

Her insurance company and the property's insurance company have begun investigations that she has been told can take months to conclude. In the meantime, she is not allowed to remove and sort through anything to see what may be salvageable.

In order for her not to lose her business and clients entirely, and continue paying her bills, she needs to find a new location immediately, as well as purchase the equipment, products and necessities just to get back to work.  She does not have personal resources at her disposal since her husband Kevin was laid off, looking for work for some time and just starting back to work.

I personally know, as many of you, Tamera and her husband Kevin have spent their lives investing in others, helping homeless, young people to get off drugs and alcohol, single moms, community outreach, anyone who needed help with whatever, they always put others first. Now they now need your help.
