My sister and her bf lost everything in a fire
Donation protected
A week ago, while in a different country, my stepsister, Ciara, and her boyfriend, Joey, witnessed one of the most devastating sites on their home camera; their apartment was on fire. They immediately called a friend who was able to rush to their apartment in time to see the firefighters had saved their pet bunny. Unfortunately, just about everything else was ruined by flames, smoke, and water.
Thankfully, no one was hurt in the fire aside from a neighbor’s cat. However, everything from clothes to home essentials to school books and laptops were unsalvageable.
I’m asking anyone who is able to donate anything that you can to help get them back on their feet. Not only will they need to start over in a new apartment, but with Joey still being in college, they will need to invest in another laptop as well as school books (which we all know can be costly).
I cannot thank you enough for sharing this post and for donating!
