Gwen and Doug's House Fire Fund
Donation protected
Hello all, so my best friend back east, Gwen and her partner Doug lost their town-home yesterday to a raging 3-alarm fire in their development, having only minutes to leave. As of yesterday, 6/17/18, their entire building is collapsed and condemned and nothing is salvageable. They've literally lost everything and didn't have time to grab a thing aside from a purse and his wallet. I've set this up for donations in hopes to share with her friends, my friends, friends of friends, etc. in hopes that compassion for their circumstance and a little group effort can raise some funds to help them in a huge time of need. Anything is appreciated, large or small amounts because it will still make a difference from toiletries to big items, they have nothing right now. I've known Gwen since sophomore year of college and for the last ten years she's been there for me in really big ways as a friend and has a huge heart. She gives a lot back to her own community as a German teacher and is just a wonderful person overall. Thanks to anyone who can read this or share it with whomever they can. Thank you for all of your help!!! Please see attached link with the story of the fire. Also, please reach out to Gwen via fb messenger if you have any sort of physical donations you’d like to contribute (gift cards, clothes, toiletries, etc) and she will try and get back to you one by one to coordinate drop offs or meet ups. You guys are beyond amazing human beings and I’m so proud to be in such a loving circle of people for my friend <3http://6abc.com/multi-alarm-fire-tears-through-norristown-apartments/3610059/
