Rebuild Lives: Aid for Fire-Affected Family
Donation protected
Please help. I am writing this GoFundMe with a lot of hope that maybe you will be able to help this family during their time of need. My daughter Elena Lucero and her boyfriend’s family were in a house fire on October 13, 2024; nothing was able to be recovered.
The father (Fernando Jimenez) was taken to University of New Mexico Hospital with burns to his face, both arms, chest, hip, thighs, and knees. While at UNMH, it was determined that he needed a higher level of care and was airlifted to Lubbock UMC Burn Center in Texas. My daughter was the other person treated on scene and only had minor injuries. During this house fire, the father had run back into the house to save his beloved dog, but their three loving cats perished. The fire also caught their car on fire, so they have no vehicle at this time. Both mother and father work and will need assistance financially as well as furniture.
Because of the magnitude of stress, and with the unknown factors of how badly Fernando's burns are, how long he will have to stay in Lubbock, and that he will have to go to rehab once discharged from the hospital, they are worried about the hospital bills, finding a new place to live, and a vehicle. I will be so grateful if you can provide them with some financial assistance in their hard time.
