Dear friends and community,

This past Thanksgiving, our neighborhood faced a heartbreaking tragedy. My kind neighbor, Bridgett, suddenly lost her husband, leaving her devastated and facing immense challenges. Just yesterday was meant to be a joyful day of family gathering, but instead, it turned into a day of sorrow and loss.

As I watched the fire department and ambulances arrive at her house, my heart sank. Despite the valiant efforts of the paramedics, Bridgett’s husband passed away, leaving behind not only a grieving wife but also significant financial burdens.

Bridgett is a remarkable person. Although I tend to keep to myself, she has always been there for me in moments of need. She devoted four hours to help me search for my lost dog when I had no one else, and when I didn’t feel safe in my own home, she stood guard to ensure I was okay. She is truly a wonderful human being who steps up when others might look away.

Now, Bridgett needs our help. With her husband’s passing, she is not only heartbroken but also facing financial difficulties. Paying rent and handling everyday expenses will be challenging. Bridgett has always supported those around her, and it’s time we come together to support her.

I’m asking everyone, if you can, please contribute even just $5. Together, we can help ease the burden of her husband’s final expenses and some of the everyday costs she will now shoulder alone.

Bridgett works as a caregiver for seniors, spreading kindness and compassion wherever she goes—she truly deserves our support during this difficult time.

Anything you can spare will mean the world to both me and Bridgett. Thank you for your generosity, compassion, and for helping our community come together in a time of need.

With heartfelt gratitude,

Jamie
