Make the family home of fallen soldiers wife live-able again
Donation protected

Hello,
We are raising money to help cover the costs to get a fallen soldier's wife back on her feet with her house/property. She has fallen on hard times since the loss of her husband, and myself with a few others are trying our best to help this woman out.
Some back story:
SSG Mark Baum was KIA on February 21, 2009, in Mushadah, Iraq, serving with the PA Army National Guard.
His wife at the time, Heather Baum, was at home taking care of the family house. With the passing of her husband, a lot of struggles arose with the house, and certain things got out of control.
Now, in 2025, we are trying to make the family house livable again for Heather. The exterior of the property has been over grown with grass and weeds. There are multiple piles of trash from the interior of the house. Multiple piles of down trees and excess wood debris around the property. A shipping container with years of storage in it that needs cleaned up. Interior of the house has had trash build up and also possibly might need some repairs moving forward as we get it cleaned out. But with the clean up comes certain bills and other things that need to be paid for to make this project come to an end.
So as we continue this project with volunteer work and the hard work from everyone already, any donation or service will greatly be appreciated.
