Mackenzie Soap and her family are facing an unimaginable challenge. After dropping her boys off at daycare, Mackenzie returned to find smoke pouring from their new home. Firefighters arrived quickly and battled the flames, but the damage was severe—the house is not livable, and the family has lost so much.

Inside the house were their three beloved pets. Chief, their loyal dog, survived after a stressful vet visit. Sadly, Pinto, their newest dog rescue, and Matcha, their cherished cat, did not make it. Mackenzie's husband, Noah, was working out of state and had to leave work immediately to rush home and support his family through this crisis.

While the insurance process has begun, it will take time before any help arrives. For now, Mackenzie and her family are staying with relatives, but they have very few belongings and are unable to return to their home until it is safe to recover what little may be salvageable. This GoFundMe is set up to help them with urgent expenses and incidentals as they navigate the difficult days ahead. Any support you can offer will make a meaningful difference as they work to rebuild their lives.

Please do not share on social media yet. I will get with the family before we can share.
