From Ashes to Hope: Rebuilding Our Home

Help Crystal, Amanda, and Bryan Rebuild After Devastating House Fire

On the afternoon of May 28, 2025, Crystal Carter, Amanda Carter, and Bryan Baker experienced the unimaginable — a devastating house fire that took everything from them. In a matter of moments, their home was completely destroyed, leaving them with only the clothes on their backs and the strength they find in one another.

But what hurts even more than the loss of their home is the heartbreaking loss of their beloved pets — two sweet kittens and two cherished turtles who brought joy and warmth to their lives every single day. Their absence is deeply felt, and the emotional toll is profound.

Anyone who knows Crystal, Amanda, and Bryan will tell you they are the kindest, most generous souls you could ever meet. They are the type of people who would give you the shirt off their back, offer a warm meal, or lend a hand without hesitation — no matter their own circumstances. Today, they are the ones in need.

This tragedy has left them with nothing — no clothes, no essentials, no place to call home. They’re now faced with the daunting challenge of starting over from scratch, while grieving the loss of the furry and shelled family members they loved so dearly.

We’re asking for your help to give them a chance to rebuild. Every dollar raised will go directly to helping them find a new place to live, replace basic necessities, and begin to piece their lives back together. No donation is too small — and every act of kindness matters more than you know.

Let’s rally around this incredible family and show them they are not alone. Let’s give back to the ones who have given so much to others.
