Rebuilding Hope for the Kowalski Family after Fire

This beautiful family lost everything in a house fire early this morning (12/1/24). They and their pets are thankfully safe, alive and well. As they now face the daunting process of rebuilding their lives from the ground up, we are asking for any support that can be spared. They have two wonderfully rambunctious kiddos, ages 6 and 4. Abbi has worked incredibly hard raising their lovely family and has served the community through her passion for baking. You may have seen her featured this past year on WSBT 22, discussing 'Bee Kind Bakery'. Colin has been a member of the South Bend Fire Department since 2017, winning the 'Unsung Heros' award for his outstanding service, all the while raising his family and going to school to become a Registered Nurse. He continues to serve his community as an RN in the Emergency Department at Memorial Hospital and simultaneously continues his service with SBFD, as an active duty Firefighter. This family has given so much to our community through their love, support, service and endless generosity. Please consider returning the favor of all their sacrifice and show them how loved and supported they are by donating in this their time of desperate need. Any amount is greatly appreciated. If you would like to donate items/clothing, that is also of great necessity at this time. Please send an email to Hanna Hough (listed) to coordinate. Thank you kindly for whatever help you can provide, especially, as we enter into this holiday season.
