Help Samantha & daughters recover from house fire.

Donation protected
My name is Beth and I created this Go Fund Me page for my daughter Samantha and grand- daughters Natalie, Serenity and Naleah. This past Saturday, June 11th, Samantha's house caught on fire. After the end of a long work week for Samantha, the day consisted of Serenity's football game, errands, grocery shopping and taking them out for ice cream. Even though they had a truck full of
groceries, she decided to take the girls to the park for 30 minutes to play. The park was not part of the plan but we thank God that they went. When they were pulling up to the house they saw a bunch of smoke and could hear the smoke detectors going off. Samantha ran up to the house and opened the door to find the entire house full of smoke. She did not see any flames so she ran into
the house to the kitchen to get the fire extinguisher, at the same time calling 911. She was advised to leave the house immediately. In a matter of minutes, they lost nearly everything. If not to fire, then to soot, smoke and water damage. From what we have been able to observe, out of the entire house, very few things are salvagable. They had just moved into this house and had not
even lived there a month. The house has now been condemned and the fire is still under investigation. They have lost nearly everything and have to start all over again. This is completely devestating to them. Samantha is trying to regroup after losing nearly an entire home. She works a minimum of full time, all the over time that she can, and also has her own side business of customized items/parties/desserts. All of this work she has put into making their new house a home, and it is all gone. All of her work equipment, the thousands of dollars she invested into her side business and supplies, everything is gone, and she is starting over. Right now, Samantha's priority is replacing her kids' belongings. Next is preparing to find another place to live, as well as replacing everything else she lost. If you know her, then you know she is known as being the helper and the giver. Anything will be greatly appreciated. Please keep Samantha and her kids in your prayers, and please share this post.
