Help The Pereles Family Rebuild After Devastating House Fire
Early Friday afternoon, tragedy struck the the Pereles family when a devastating fire engulfed their home, leaving them with nothing but the clothes on their backs. Thankfully, everyone made it out safely, but they are still recovering at Staten Island University Hospital. Unfortunately, their home and belongings were completely destroyed.
This is deeply personal to me, as Isaiah has been a valued employee of mine for the past 10 years. During that time, he has become so much more than a colleague—he and his family have become family to me. This situation touches my heart profoundly, impacting not only me and my loved ones but also our company, the events industry, and all of his family and friends.
This loving family of 4—Isaiah, Julissa, Greyson and Ian - are now facing the unimaginable challenge of starting over from scratch. They lost not just their home, but cherished memories, essential belongings, and the comfort of the life they had built.
Right now, the the Pereles family needs our help to get back on their feet. All donations will go toward:
• Temporary housing while they figure out long-term plans.
• Clothing and basic necessities to replace what was lost.
• Medical Bills as Isaiah and his 2 year old son Ian recover from 2nd degree burns
• Funds to rebuild their life, including furniture, household items, and school supplies for the kids.
Any contribution, big or small, will make a tremendous difference in helping this family rebuild and find hope again. If you’re unable to donate, sharing this campaign with your network would mean the world to them.
Thank you for your kindness and generosity during this heartbreaking time. Together, we can show the Pereles family that they are not alone and that their community stands with them.
