Urgent Help for the Maceikis Family

Donation protected
Dear friends and family of Kristin, Michael, Savannah and Lil Man:

As you may know by now, this family lost absolutely everything (except each other, thank God) to a devastating house fire on April 2nd. This loss includes their beloved pets (four dogs, two cats, a hedgehog, a prairie dog, a ferret, geckos, and several other reptiles). It goes without saying that this tragedy has caused awful heartache for the family.

Update regarding immediate and future needs of the family:

Immediate needs: Many of us want to help them right now, and the best way to do that is through financial assistance. Their immediate needs include shelter, food, clothing, and taking care of their farm animals. Additionally, they need to secure the necessary equipment/dumpsters to start the clean-up and recovery process of family heirlooms and anything else they might be able to salvage. Any amount will help and the family can access the funds immediately. If you are able to donate clothing, we are looking for the following sizes:
Savannah (15 year old): size 8ish, and 8.5 shoes
Lil Man (5 year old):  4 or 5T, and size 13 or 1 shoes 
Kristin (Mom): 18/20 (2x/3x), and size 10 shoes
Michael (Dad): 48, and size 10.5 shoes   

Future needs: Many have offered to donate furniture and other household items. Thank you! These items will definitely be needed as soon as they have a place to live. If you can hold on to them until that time, that would be wonderful. If you can't store them and you are located in Tampa, please leave us a message and we'll make arrangements to store smaller items until we can deliver them to Milton. 

Of course, they are still very much in need of prayers.

Thank you in advance for your help.
