Early this morning, tragedy struck our family — my mother- father-in-law and sweet uncle Vernon lost everything in a devastating house fire. Thankfully, they made it out safely, but their home and all their belongings are completely gone.

Years of memories, keepsakes, and essentials were lost in a matter of minutes. They now face the overwhelming task of rebuilding their lives from scratch — without even the basics like clothing, toiletries, or a place to stay long-term.

We're reaching out to our community, friends, and anyone willing to help, to raise funds that will go directly toward helping them with:

Temporary housing

Clothing and daily essentials

Replacing lost items and furniture

Rebuilding what was lost

Anything you can give — even a few dollars — will make a difference. If you’re not in a position to donate, please consider sharing this page to help us spread the word.

We are incredibly grateful for any support, prayers, and kindness you can offer during this difficult time.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
