My name is Crystal, and I am creating this GoFundMe after a devastating house fire that recently destroyed our home. In a matter of moments, my children and I lost many of the belongings we worked so hard to build over the years. Clothes, personal items, and important things my kids use every day were all lost in the fire.

As a parent, it has been heartbreaking to see my children go through this. I have always worked hard to provide for them, so starting over like this is extremely overwhelming. Right now, we are focused on rebuilding our lives and replacing the essentials that were taken from us.

I am asking for help from anyone who feels moved to support our family during this difficult time. Donations will go toward replacing clothing, school items, everyday necessities, and the majorette equipment and items my kids lost. They also have an upcoming trip to Dallas, and I truly don’t want this tragedy to take away opportunities they have worked so hard for.

Any support—whether through a donation, sharing this fundraiser, or keeping our family in your prayers—means more to us than words can express.

Thank you for helping us take the first steps toward rebuilding and healing.. Your kindness and generosity mean the world to us.

With love and gratitude,

Crystal Hicks
