Hello, my name is Jackie and I’m a current UT student. I lived in a house in North Austin with 3 other roommates until March 12th, when my room experienced a devastating electrical fire when I was not home. Luckily all of my roommates are physically safe, but the damages to our home are so drastic that it is not safe for us to live there anymore. Unfortunately, I lost everything in the fire, and have learned that we did not have renters insurance. I am hoping to raise money to recoup basic items I do not own, such as clothing, a bed, food etc. I am also raising money for the damages to my roommate Maritza’s room, and for deposit money for all of us to find a new place. Anything helps.
