Support Manny's Recovery After Tragic Fire

Hi everyone,

It’s with a heavy heart that I share some devastating news. Early yesterday morning, my best friend Manny’s apartment building caught fire. Thankfully, Manny was able to escape with minor injuries and is currently recovering in the hospital. However, we are heartbroken to share that our dear friend James and his beloved fur baby, Lucello, tragically passed away in the fire. We are all in shock, struggling to come to terms with this unimaginable loss. While Manny is physically okay, the emotional toll of this tragedy is something I can’t even begin to comprehend. I was able to briefly return to the apartment, and it’s overwhelming to see that everything Manny had—his belongings, his home—has been destroyed.

I’m asking for your support as Manny begins the difficult road to recovery. Any donations, no matter how small, would make an enormous difference in helping him get back on his feet. If you’re unable to donate, please consider sharing this link and keeping Manny, James, and Lucello in your thoughts and prayers

. Thank you all for your kindness, love, and support during this incredibly difficult time. With gratitude,

Tatiana Navarro
