Support for the Woodworth Family
Donation protected
As many of you know, the Woodworth family experienced a house fire last weekend and lost almost all of their possessions due to the heavy smoke and water damage. Thankfully, the whole family and all of their pets got out safe.
Many people have asked how you can support them, and we decided creating a GoFundMe was the easiest way, since they are still really figuring out what they need (which is pretty much everything!). Let's all help them reduce any potential financial stress as they navigate this challenging situation in the weeks to come.
We appreciate you all!
From Mike:
"We are so grateful for everyone, your prayers & generosity. We do have good insurance but it's tough to tell how long it will take to get adequate payments so we are accepting a GoFundMe which will only be used if necessary. This will be a long challenging process, especially when both of us work a busy schedule. Any funds we don't need for purposes of rebuild will be donated to the Red Cross, North Kent Connect, or a local less fortunate family. Count on us to pay it forward after we overcome this as well".
