Hi friends, family, and kind-hearted strangers,

Just five days after moving into their new home, Katrina and her two young children experienced a tragedy. A gas leak from the hot water tank caused a massive explosion, rendering their house uninhabitable. All the windows and the garage door were blown out, and the back wall of the house was destroyed.

Katrina's daughter, who wears size 7/8 clothes and size 1 shoes, and her son, who wears size 5/6 clothes and size 9 little boys shoes, lost all their belongings. Katrina, who wears a size S/M and size 6 shoes, also lost everything, including essential items.

They are now staying at the Holiday Inn in Oscoda and urgently need basic hygiene products and other essentials. Donations can be dropped off at the Holiday Inn's front desk for Katrina or at the Lake Breeze Party Store in Sand Lake.

We are reaching out to you for support during this incredibly difficult time. Any donation, big or small, will help Katrina and her children rebuild their lives. Funds will go towards finding a new home, replacing lost belongings, and covering daily necessities.

Katrina is deeply grateful for everyone’s thoughts and prayers. Your kindness and generosity will make a world of difference as they navigate this challenging journey.
