Oliver-Rowsey Family Fire Relief Fund

Donation protected
In the early hours of the morning on March 24, the Oliver/Rowsey family lost their home to a devastating fire. The family was asleep, but due to the courageous efforts of their dogs, Brad, Sheena and their boys were able to evacuate safely. Unfortunately, the two of the heroes in this story, their dogs Ollie and Freckles, were lost in the fire (the dogs are pictured below with the family). Along with Ollie and Freckles, the family lost three more animals - two hamsters and a pet snake.

Because of this fire, the family lost all of their personal belongings and cherished memories. They got safely out of the house with only the clothes they were wearing.

This GoFundMe is created to help assist Brad, Sheena and their boys as they start to rebuild their lives. We are asking for your help to offset some of the expenses they are going to incur. 

Victims of fires face tremendous emotional stress and financial costs, with this GoFundMe we hope to alleviate some of the stress this family will face as they begin to rebuild their lives. 

 Brad, Sheena and their family will be out of a home for a while, any type of monetary donation would be greatly appreciated to help this family during their time of need.  Your donation will help the family get basic necessities they lost such as clothing, food, school supplies, etc. The clothing sizes for both boys are 8/10 youth and men's small. The family is grateful for any help you can provide.
