My name is Jordan Carter, and I lived with my boyfriend, Mark Mesagno. We are reaching out after experiencing a devastating house fire that resulted in a total loss of our home and everything we owned. The fire not only destroyed our belongings, but we also lost our beloved dog and two cats, which has been heartbreaking. While we are grateful to have temporary housing right now, the road ahead feels overwhelming as we try to rebuild our lives from scratch.

Our most urgent need is getting into a new place to live, including covering the security deposit and first month’s rent. After that, we need help with food, clothing, a bed, and other household items to help us start over. Every donation will go directly toward helping us secure a safe and stable home, and to replace the basic things we need to rebuild. The kindness and generosity of others mean more than words can express during this difficult time.

Any support means the world to us as we try to rebuild after this total loss. Thank you for helping us start over and for being part of our journey toward a new beginning.
