Help my brother and his family

Donation protected
On Sunday, my brother and his family lost their garage to a fire. That, in itself, does not seem tragic. However, this garage held what is turning out to be almost everything they own besides furniture. It contained 4 sets of golf clubs, 3 bikes, 5 fishing poles and all the extensive fishing equipment,  all the family's camping equipment (if you know us well, you know it was a LOT), all my brother's tools, his work bench, his table saw, even a refridgerator filled with food. His 4 boys lost all their toys as well. From sidewalk chalk, to basketballs & footballs, to tennis raquets, The whole front end of Weston's car was melted and the car is toast. They had just spent hundreds of dollars and hours painting the garage and fixing it up for Weston's graduation party this summer.

And the worst part? Because of a window that was in disrepair, insurance is not covering ANYTHING. They're not replacing one bike, one toy, one tool. Can you imagine? Every day, they remember more and more of what they had stored in the garage and every day they're hurting a little more thinking about the cost of replacing all of this.
His family is pulling together and getting through the loss knowing that things are just things and thankful that the fire did not take any lives. But their hearts are broken, and so is mine. Over the course of their marriage they worked hard, saved and practiced financial responsibility. Tens of thousands of dollars were cinged away in this fire.

My hope is that their family and friends can come together and help his family out. The Hurley's are 100% an outdoor family. Everything the boys play with and enjoy was in that fire. If you know them, consider helping out. If everyone gives just a little, we could end up mending their hearts and at least take away a little bit of that stress and burden from them which is all I want.
