Hi, my name is Terriana Hodges and I represent myself and 3 of my younger siblings. Davion Rouse (19), Demetrius Nelson (18), and Deshawna Hodges (16) all have been residing with me.

On Saturday, May 21st Demetrius and his friend were the only two in the house when a fire ignited. Demetrius was airlifted to Hennepin County Medical Center, where he is being treated for 2nd-degree burns. Unfortunately, we cannot see him at this time, but we want to work from the outside to ensure that he comes home to a HOME!

The fire started in Davion’s room and left him with nothing. We could not salvage any of his belongings. Professionals are not sure when we will be able to return home. We need help with housing, food, clothes, and other day-to-day costs.

I’ve done my best to support my siblings and be the older sibling I never had. However, a series of unfortunate events have left me to rely on friends, family and members of our community to extend arms and help however one can. Please, anything is appreciated.

Sincerely,

Terriana
