Support Robert Self's Family After Fire

Donation protected
Hi Team,

I hope this message finds you well. I wanted to take a moment to share some unfortunate news that has impacted one of our valued team members. Robert Self and his family experienced a devastating loss last night when their home was tragically destroyed in a fire.

Around 1 AM this morning, Robert's wife was awakened by the smell of smoke. Thankfully, she acted quickly, managing to get herself and their young children to safety before the situation deteriorated. While we are grateful that the entire family is unharmed, they have lost all of their personal belongings, and it seems that there is very little remaining that can be salvaged from their home.

Given these circumstances, we at Energy Link want to extend our support to Robert and his family during this incredibly challenging time. We believe that as a team, we can come together to provide them with the assistance they need. We are organizing a donation drive to collect both monetary contributions and physical items that might be helpful for the family.

Robert has young children, and we are currently gathering information on their clothing and shoe sizes so that we can provide them with appropriate items. In the meantime, any donations—be they clothing, household items, or financial contributions—would be deeply appreciated and will make a significant difference in their recovery process.

If you would like to contribute, please drop off any donations at the front desk with Diann, Gabby, or David in the EL Shop. At this moment, we have already raised $200 to help get things started, but our goal is to do much more.

Let’s rally together to support Robert and his family in their time of need. Thank you all for your generosity and compassion.
