Help Joe & Marlene Trevino Rebuild After Losing Everything to a Tornado

On Thursday, June 11, 2026, Joe and Marlene Trevino’s lives changed forever.

A devastating tornado tore through their community, destroying their home and leaving them with virtually nothing. In a matter of minutes, everything they had worked so hard for was gone. Their home, furniture, clothing, personal belongings, family keepsakes, and the memories they built there were lost to the storm.

As if this tragedy wasn’t enough, Joe has been unable to work due to the ongoing BP strike, which has left him locked out of his job and without income during an already difficult time. The financial strain of being out of work has made this disaster even more overwhelming for Joe and Marlene as they now face the unimaginable task of starting over from scratch.

Anyone who knows Joe and Marlene knows they are hardworking, caring people who would give the shirt off their backs to help someone in need. Today, they are the ones who need the support of their family, friends, neighbors, and community.

While we are incredibly thankful that Joe and Marlene are safe, the road ahead will be long. They now need help securing temporary housing, replacing clothing and personal necessities, purchasing household essentials, and beginning the difficult process of rebuilding their lives.

We are asking for your support during this heartbreaking time. Every donation, no matter the amount, will go directly toward helping Joe and Marlene recover from this devastating loss and begin rebuilding their future.

If you are unable to donate, please consider sharing this fundraiser and keeping Joe and Marlene in your thoughts and prayers.

Thank you for your kindness, generosity, and support. Your help will provide hope, comfort, and strength as Joe and Marlene take their first steps toward rebuilding after this tragedy.

With heartfelt gratitude,

Family and Friends of Joe & Marlene Trevino
