Help Anthony's Family Rebuild After Fire

MY PARENTS' GARAGE AND VEHICLE BURNED DOWN

To all those that read this,

I'm Anthony. I started a GoFundMe for my parents and my younger brother. Around 1:00 AM on 1/29/2025, their garage caught fire from an electrical wiring issue. My dad ran out into 3 ft of snow to try to put the fire out but was unsuccessful. He woke up the whole family to come out and help him. It took 40 minutes for local volunteer firefighters to show up and try to put the blaze out. The garage was not included in the homeowners' insurance policy. They lost their only vehicle (Toyota Tundra) for transportation.

Years back, my dad was hit by a tanker truck that caused him to have several surgeries, so he cannot work full-time as it's too much on his body. They recently purchased their dream house to remodel and retire in, so there were a lot of personal items and furniture which recently came from a storage facility and were ready to be moved into the house. The fire also consumed thousands of dollars worth of building materials and power tools, a riding mower, an ATV, and my grandparents' urns and ashes along with my grandfather's memorial flag from his funeral. My brother Alex lost all of his sports equipment he had been collecting for over a decade. It is a complete and total loss for my mother and father. We're trying to raise $20,000 to get them a new vehicle and to pay for the fire damage cleanup. They live in the hills of Cattaraugus County, miles away from anything helpful. We appreciate all of your prayers and concern. I am asking for financial assistance from the community to help them rebuild their lives and try to find a new used vehicle. Literally, any donation would help and would be a blessing. We continue to pray for protection and resolution for our family during this extremely difficult time. We thank God nobody was seriously injured or killed from the fire and that it did not burn the house down with the garage. ANYTHING HELPS! May God bless our family and help them find a way out of this major setback. The current goal is $20,000.00, and we're hoping to get as close as we can to help them rebuild their lives again.
