Help us build a new home for a young family

Donation protected
Hello everyone on February 28, 2024 my house was lost forever. At around 6:20am I noticed smoke on the 2nd floor of my home. It was at this time I reliazed that the 1st floor was already engulfed in flames. My husband, Cisco ran downstairs to try and get his uncle, Ed and dog, Jadah out of the 1st floor apt. My daughter Addison 14 grabbed our dog and ran out the door and I ran out after everyone else. I started calling 911 as my husband (cisco) started breaking windows to get his uncle(ed) out to safety. His uncle was able to make it out with minimal injuries which obtained 3rd degree burns to his face and arms. But Jadah our dog was unable to be save. I obtained burns to my throat from smoke inhalation. My daughter Addison was able to escape with no injuries except mental health flash backs. Help from multiple fire departments they were able to get the fire out but very little in the house was able to be salvageable.
We are currently staying in a hotel till we can figure everything out on where we will be able to start a new life to make new memories as a new little family. Your donations will help us with medical bills, clothes, a place to stay well we find a new home. We are extremely greatful for any help we can receive.
