On Saturday, January 31st, my coworker and friend, Hailey Dotson's family, experienced a devastating house fire that took everything from them in a matter of minutes. Their home was a complete loss, along with all of their belongings — cars, clothes, furniture, personal items, and irreplaceable memories.

Tragically, this loss is even heavier as the family is also grieving the loss of a beloved family member who was unable to escape the home. They are now facing unimaginable emotional pain while trying to rebuild their lives from nothing.

Right now, they are in urgent need of support for basic necessities such as:

Clothing and shoes

Temporary housing

Food and daily essentials

Replacing important items and household basics

Funeral expenses

Every donation, no matter the size, will go directly toward helping this family cover immediate needs and begin the long process of rebuilding their lives.

If you’re unable to donate, please consider sharing this page. Your support — whether financial, emotional, or through spreading the word — truly means the world to this family during this incredibly difficult time.

Thank you for showing love, kindness, and compassion when they need it most.
