On Monday March 4, 2024, a fire broke out at a 6-unit apartment building in Thornton NH. Waterville Valley employees Amanda Pearson and Ryan Reed lived in the apartment and were able to escape with only what was on their backs and with their beloved cat. Ryan heroically, ran from his apartment warn all other residents about the fire and to get them to safety. By the time he did that, he could not go back in to retrieve any personal belonging, including shoes.

Their lives have been turned upside down and they need to start over with even the most basic necessities, clothing, bedding, toiletries, etc. Not to mention having to find a new place to live.

Any and all donations will help them to rebuild their lives. Please come together as a community and help Amanda and Ryan at their time of need.
