Help us pay for urgent chimney repairs

We never anticipated our home repairs would take such an unexpected turn. What initially seemed like cosmetic fixes turned into a daunting challenge as 40% of our chimney crumbled from the inside, requiring extensive reconstruction.

The rollercoaster began with a quote of $3500, which then skyrocketed to $13500. Shockingly, the latest twist is that the initial quote might still be valid, pushing our total expense to a staggering $17,000.

In our eagerness to address this issue promptly, we provided the contractors with everything we had as a down payment while patiently awaiting a home equity loan. Unfortunately, our hopes were dashed when the loan didn't come through due to some credit setbacks and late payments this fall.

This campaign is a plea for support to recoup the funds we put down, anticipating the loan's approval. The urgency stems from the need to settle bills and ensure the stability of our home. We are diligently exploring other resources to cover the remaining costs.

Your generosity can make a world of difference in helping us regain financial stability and restore our home to its former safety and comfort. Every donation, no matter the size, brings us one step closer to overcoming this unexpected hurdle.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for standing by us during this challenging time. Together, we can turn this setback into a comeback
