Small Beauty Supply Store Burnt to the Ground

Hi, my name is Brian. I am currently a 18-year-old freshman in college. I come from Queens, NYC and from an underprivileged background with immigrant parents who left their life overseas in their 20s. They worked hard to support my younger sister and I everyday. My father worked tirelessly and, after saving up for his entire life, was finally able to put down a down payment for a small beauty store in West New Jersey just 2 months ago in December. They both worked relentlessly to maintain it, leaving the house at 8am each day and getting home at 9PM.

However, just yesterday, Wednesday, February 8th, at around 4:30 A.M., a fire started in a store around Bergenline Avenue, West New York, New Jersey, and unfortunately burnt down our store, leaving my parents without a job and a source of income to support my younger sister and I, with most of our savings put into starting our small store 2 months ago.

Here is an article about our store burning down:

It sounds cliche, but even a dollar or sharing the link on social media would help our family out so much. Thank you so much for reading and take care :)
