24Aug Update: Thank you to everyone who has donated so far! In under 24 hours we have reached and surpassed our goal! Both Karen and Julie are beyond grateful at the generosity and support from everyone. Let's keep doing what we can to help them out and see if we can reach our new goal!

Please consider helping support Karen and her special needs daughter Julie to recover from a tragic fire that destroyed their home and almost all their possessions.

Karen, a single mother and longtime Regeneron employee, is currently without a place to live.

On Monday, August 22, a devastating house fire destroyed Karen and Julie's home and nearly everything they own. Karen and Julie escaped without injuries but lost their home and one of their beloved pet cats.

Although we cannot replace everything lost, any money given will be greatly appreciated. Any donations will help Karen find temporary housing, purchase new clothes, comfort items, and help replace Julie's treasured Nintendo Switch. Karen has always been willing to support and help others when they need it; let's come together and help her during these difficult times.
