Help for my sister
Donation protected
On Monday February 24, 2020 in Vaudreuil-Dorion we all watched in horror as my sister Mercedes and my brother in law's (Danny) house was caught in an electrical fire that ripped through all three floors of their home. The damage was so extensive that ALL of their possessions were destroyed either through the actual fire, smoke and/or the chemicals dispersed by the multiple firemen that were trying to control the spread. The fire was spreading into the walls and in turn also spread to the neighbors house as they live in a semi-detached home.
Losing all your memorabilia, pictures, clothing, furniture, kids toys etc is bad enough but to top it all off, although there was insurance in place for the 'dwelling', their possessions were not insured.
It will take at least 6 months for the home to be rebuilt. They've taken shelter within our family dwellings but needless to say, the cost to them monetary wise, without having insurance will be extreme.
Lots of friends and family have been donating clothes for my niece (9 yrs old), nephew (15 yrs old), sister and my brother-in-law and we thank you so much for this.
I've started this GoFundMe page to raise money for their family in order to try to help in any way possible. All appliances were destroyed which that alone is expensive enough but the cost to rebuild a functional 'HOME' will be overwhelming.
My sister Mercedes is one of the most kind-hearted people I know. Her and her family are devastated and at a loss for words.
We believe very strongly in the goodness of humanity and hope you will see it in your hearts to give a donation. ANY amount is welcome.
WE THANK YOU ALL FROM THE BOTTOM OF OUR HEARTS.
