While undergoing renovations, the roof of The Whaley Historic House caught on fire in Flint, Michigan. No one was physically harmed, but the house has suffered enormous amounts of damage. Funds will be used to repair any and all fire damage.

UPDATE: People are wondering who I am! I am a friend of Samantha Engel (Whaley Executive Director), a member of Whaley House and the Executive Director of Flint Handmade, which has a partnership with Whaley on our Quilting Bee.

I am also a resident of the City of Flint and I care deeply about the revitalization of our community! Because I set up this page for a registered charity, the funds will be mailed via check directly to Whaley. I hope this info helps!
