<div>Help Keiko Rebuild Her Life After Losing Everything in a Devastating Fire
</div>
<div><strong>(ENGLISH ver./ PORTUGUES a baixo/ Français canadien)</strong>

</div>
<div>From my mother, Keiko:
</div>
<div> Atualização
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Queridos amigos,
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Para aqueles que estão conhecendo minha campanha agora, gostaria de compartilhar brevemente o que aconteceu.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Na madrugada de 19 de junho de 2026, minha casa foi completamente destruída por um incêndio. Em apenas alguns minutos, perdi praticamente tudo o que possuía: minha casa, minhas roupas, meus móveis, equipamentos de trabalho, fotografias, lembranças de uma vida inteira e quase todos os meus pertences.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Desde então, tenho trabalhado diariamente para limpar os escombros, recuperar tudo o que ainda pode ser salvo e reconstruir minha vida, um passo de cada vez.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Hoje eu queria fazer uma pequena atualização e, acima de tudo, agradecer.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Antes de tudo, muito obrigada a cada pessoa que fez uma doação, compartilhou minha campanha, enviou uma mensagem de carinho ou simplesmente fez uma oração por mim. Todo gesto de apoio tem feito uma enorme diferença.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Aos poucos, estou conseguindo limpar, organizar e recuperar alguns dos poucos pertences que sobreviveram ao incêndio. É um trabalho muito mais lento e difícil do que eu imaginava. Muitas coisas exigem horas de limpeza, e outras infelizmente não puderam ser salvas.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Com a ajuda das doações, consegui comprar caixas para organizar os objetos recuperados, materiais de limpeza, sacos resistentes, luvas e outros itens necessários para esse processo.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Também fui cercada por pessoas extraordinárias.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Recebi ajuda de vizinhos, amigos, colegas de trabalho e até de pessoas que eu mal conhecia. Algumas vieram trabalhar ao meu lado por horas; outras trouxeram caixas, gelo, água, ferramentas, alimentos e até uma tenda (canopy), que tem sido essencial para me proteger do sol da Flórida enquanto trabalho nos escombros.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Minha filha Julia e seu amigo Gabriel passaram praticamente um dia inteiro comigo, limpando, organizando e tentando salvar tudo o que ainda era possível recuperar.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Sou profundamente grata por cada pessoa que dedicou seu tempo, sua força e seu carinho para me ajudar.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Ao mesmo tempo, já precisei voltar ao trabalho. Estou conciliando meu emprego com a limpeza da casa, por isso o progresso acontece mais devagar do que eu gostaria. Mas sigo avançando, um passo de cada vez.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Ainda tenho um longo caminho pela frente. Meu maior desafio continua sendo encontrar um lugar para morar e reconstruir minha vida.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>O incêndio destruiu minha casa, mas também revelou algo que jamais esquecerei: a incrível bondade das pessoas.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Talvez eu não consiga mencionar todos que passaram pela minha vida nessas últimas semanas. Se eu esquecer alguém, peço minhas sinceras desculpas.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Cada caixa carregada, cada saco de lixo retirado, cada garrafa de água, cada saco de gelo, cada mensagem, cada oração, cada abraço e cada gesto de carinho fizeram parte da reconstrução da minha vida. Nenhum gesto foi pequeno. Todos fizeram diferença.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>A caminhada ainda é longa, mas hoje tenho muito mais esperança do que tinha naquela madrugada. Cada pequeno avanço só tem sido possível graças ao apoio de todos vocês.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Obrigada por continuarem caminhando ao meu lado.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Com todo o meu carinho e eterna gratidão,
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Keiko.

<div><br />
</div>
<div>Dear friends,
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>For those who are just discovering my fundraiser, I’d like to briefly share what happened.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>In the early hours of June 19, 2026, my home was completely destroyed by a fire. In just a matter of minutes, I lost nearly everything I owned: my home, clothing, furniture, work equipment, photographs, a lifetime of memories, and almost all of my personal belongings.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Since then, I have been working every day to clear the debris, recover whatever can still be saved, and rebuild my life, one step at a time.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Today, I wanted to share a small update and, above all, say thank you.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>First and foremost, thank you to every person who has donated, shared my fundraiser, sent me a kind message, or simply kept me in your prayers. Every act of support has made an enormous difference.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Little by little, I’m cleaning, organizing, and recovering some of the few belongings that survived the fire. It’s a much slower and more difficult process than I ever imagined. Some items require hours of careful cleaning, while others, sadly, couldn’t be saved.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thanks to your generosity, I’ve been able to purchase storage bins, cleaning supplies, heavy-duty trash bags, gloves, and other essential items needed for this process.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I’ve also been surrounded by extraordinary people.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Neighbors, friends, coworkers, and even people I barely knew have come to help. Some spent hours working alongside me, while others brought storage bins, ice, water, tools, food, and even a canopy that has been essential in protecting me from the intense Florida sun while I work through the debris.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>My daughter, Julia, and her friend Gabriel spent nearly an entire day with me, cleaning, organizing, and helping save everything that could still be recovered.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I am deeply grateful to every person who has shared their time, strength, and kindness with me.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>At the same time, I’ve had to return to work. I’m balancing my job with the cleanup, which means progress is slower than I’d like. Still, I’m moving forward, one step at a time.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I still have a long road ahead. My biggest challenge remains finding a permanent place to live and rebuilding my life.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The fire destroyed my home, but it also revealed something I will never forget: the incredible kindness of people.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I may not be able to mention everyone who has been part of my journey over these past few weeks. If I’ve unintentionally left anyone out, please accept my sincere apologies.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Every box carried, every bag of debris removed, every bottle of water, every bag of ice, every message, every prayer, every hug, and every act of kindness has become part of rebuilding my life. No act of kindness was ever too small. Every single one made a difference.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The journey ahead is still long, but today I have far more hope than I did on that heartbreaking night. Every small step forward has only been possible because of your support.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you for continuing to walk beside me on this journey.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>With all my love and heartfelt gratitude,
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Keiko.

</div>
<div>Chers amis,
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Pour ceux qui découvrent ma campagne aujourd’hui, j’aimerais vous raconter brièvement ce qui s’est passé.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Dans la nuit du 19 juin 2026, ma maison a été complètement détruite par un incendie. En seulement quelques minutes, j’ai perdu presque tout ce que je possédais : ma maison, mes vêtements, mes meubles, mon matériel de travail, mes photographies, les souvenirs de toute une vie et presque tous mes effets personnels.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Depuis ce jour, je travaille chaque jour pour nettoyer les décombres, récupérer tout ce qui peut encore être sauvé et reconstruire ma vie, un pas à la fois.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Aujourd’hui, je souhaitais vous donner quelques nouvelles et, surtout, vous dire merci.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Avant tout, merci du fond du cœur à chaque personne qui a fait un don, partagé ma campagne, envoyé un message d’encouragement ou simplement prié pour moi. Chaque geste de soutien a fait une immense différence.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Peu à peu, je réussis à nettoyer, organiser et récupérer une partie des rares objets qui ont survécu à l’incendie. C’est un travail beaucoup plus long et difficile que je ne l’avais imaginé. Certains objets demandent des heures de nettoyage, tandis que d’autres n’ont malheureusement pas pu être sauvés.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Grâce à votre générosité, j’ai pu acheter des bacs de rangement, des produits de nettoyage, des sacs résistants, des gants et d’autres fournitures essentielles pour poursuivre ce travail.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>J’ai également eu la chance d’être entourée de personnes extraordinaires.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Des voisins, des amis, des collègues de travail et même des personnes que je connaissais à peine sont venus m’aider. Certains ont travaillé à mes côtés pendant des heures; d’autres ont apporté des bacs de rangement, de la glace, de l’eau, des outils, de la nourriture et même un abri pliant (canopy), qui m’a été indispensable pour me protéger du soleil intense de la Floride pendant que je travaille dans les décombres.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Ma fille, Julia, et son ami Gabriel ont passé presque toute une journée avec moi à nettoyer, organiser et tenter de sauver tout ce qui pouvait encore être récupéré.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Je suis profondément reconnaissante envers toutes les personnes qui m’ont offert leur temps, leur énergie et leur bienveillance.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>En même temps, j’ai dû reprendre le travail. J’essaie de concilier mon emploi avec le nettoyage de la maison, ce qui ralentit les progrès plus que je ne le souhaiterais. Malgré tout, j’avance, un pas à la fois.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Le chemin est encore long. Mon plus grand défi demeure de trouver un nouveau chez-moi et de reconstruire ma vie.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>L’incendie a détruit ma maison, mais il m’a aussi révélé quelque chose que je n’oublierai jamais : l’immense bonté des gens.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Je ne pourrai peut-être pas mentionner toutes les personnes qui ont croisé mon chemin au cours des dernières semaines. Si j’ai oublié quelqu’un, je vous présente mes plus sincères excuses.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Chaque boîte transportée, chaque sac de débris retiré, chaque bouteille d’eau, chaque sac de glace, chaque message, chaque prière, chaque étreinte et chaque geste de générosité ont contribué à reconstruire ma vie. Aucun geste n’a été trop petit. Chacun a fait une réelle différence.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Le chemin est encore long, mais aujourd’hui j’ai beaucoup plus d’espoir que dans les heures qui ont suivi l’incendie. Chaque petit progrès n’a été possible que grâce à votre soutien.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Merci de continuer à marcher à mes côtés dans cette épreuve.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Avec toute mon affection et ma profonde gratitude,
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Keiko.
</div>
