Help Taylor Rebuild After Fire Destroys Home

Hi, everyone! I am starting a fundraiser on behalf of my close friend, Taylor Adkins, who recently lost her home due to a devastating fire at the Reserve on Lavista Walk apartments. This is the second time in less than a year she's been displaced from her home and my heart breaks for her. Last Christmas, all of the pipes in her apartment complex burst because of the cold temperatures and it completely flooded her home. Now, her new home that she recently moved into has been destroyed by the fire. Taylor is too humble to ask for any help, so I wanted to lift her spirits and try to help her recover some of the things she's lost. My goal is to raise $5,000 over the next few weeks for necessities such as furniture, clothes, etc. I know she won't be able to get everything back, but this is a start and I am so deeply appreciative of any contribution you can make. No contribution is too small and if you aren't able to contribute monetarily, please send your good thoughts over her way. Please feel free to share this page with any of your networks.

With gratitude,

Ada

Update from Taylor below on 11/14:

Hello Everyone,

I want to personally thank every single one of you for your support during this difficult time for my family. To every classmate, professor, partner, and friend who has given my son and I support through donations, calls, and texts. I thank you.

I was in Amsterdam when the fire occurred, because of that my vehicle was not on the property. It was parked at my office because I took an uber to the Airport from work. Thankfully when I came home I was fortunate enough to have my vehicle.

I lived in the 1000 building. At this time, our apartment community is pre-determining my side of the building a total loss. I am in communication with insurance but due to the collapse risk fire investigations are on hold indefinitely.

This has not been easy but God has personally blessed me with a beautiful village of supporters that have gone above and beyond to care for myself and my son. I am eternally grateful to you all. Thank you.
