Family of 6 Needs Help: Basement Flooded With Sewage Water

Donation protected



June 1st, just 4 days ago, my nephew, his wife and their 4 kids woke up to their first family home, having an unexpected and rather major, issue, when their sewage pump malfunctioned and backed up sewage all over their basement, (which consists of a full bathroom, my nephew and his wife's bedroom, and a full family room), ruining thousands of dollars in furniture, flooring, walls, etc.... Their insurance will only cover a small portion of this.

I've attached a video from the assement that was done, which shows the flooding and damages that occurred from the flooding.

This young couple and their family are typically ones to help others in need, even when they are struggling themselves, and are never ones to ask for help in return. They both work very hard, and have 4 children (all under the age of 10). When I was asked if I could help them with setting up a Go Fund Me for them to help with the unexpected and impactful costs of this damage to their home, even then, they didn't feel right (honestly, a little embarassed) about it, because they don't like to have to ask anyone for help, and prefer to handle things themselves.

I told them they shouldn't feel embarassed, that things like this happen, and every so often, we all could use a little help when things like this occur. So, if you're able and willing, and can help this beautiful family of 6, with a donation to help get their expenses of the damage to the basement and replacement of damaged (lost) items, recovered, I know they would be so grateful and appreciative. Thank you in advance.
