Hi everyone,

My name is Newcomb. Recently, my apartment complex in Puyallup was hit by a fast-moving, devastating fire. I watched in absolute shock as the flames engulfed the property, a terrifying moment captured in the cover photo of this fundraiser.

While I am incredibly grateful to have made it out safely, I have suffered a catastrophic loss. The fire and subsequent damage resulted in a 100% total loss of my home. I lost my furniture, my clothes, my kids' belongings, and every everyday essential I owned. I am quite literally starting over from absolute zero.

Why I Need Your Help

If you know me, you know I am used to working hard, solving problems, and taking care of business. But facing a total loss like this is incredibly humbling, and I cannot rebuild this life alone.

I am raising funds to cover the immediate, critical expenses of getting my feet back on the ground. Your donations will go directly toward:

Securing Stable Housing: First month's rent and security deposits for a new place to live.

Immediate Essentials: Replacing daily clothes, shoes, school supplies, and toiletries for my children and myself.

Furnishing a Safe Home: Getting basic bedding, a mattress, kitchen utensils, and essential furniture so my kids have a normal, safe place to sleep again.

Every Little Bit Helps

I understand times are tough for everyone. If you are unable to donate money, please know that your kind words, and simply clicking the "Share" button to pass this link along to your network means more to me than words can say.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for standing by me during the hardest chapter of my life.

With gratitude,

Newcomb and family
