Home Destroyed by Collision

This is a fundraiser on behalf of the Sims family of Belchertown, MA. On Sunday evening, August 20th, at 8:45 pm, a teenage driver evading police lost control of his vehicle. The car went airborne and crashed into the Sims' home, creating a large hole in the brick wall. The car's engine was ejected, creating a second large hole in the structure, (and a crack down the side of the house), and landing in a bathroom. Tragically, the young driver was killed. The Sims family feels devastated on behalf of the young man and his family.

Their home has been condemned. It has been deemed unsafe to enter the property. They will be forced to find emergency accommodations and buy supplies such as food/clothing. It will take time for their insurance to assess the damage and issue payments and they pray that all of the repairs needed will be covered and that their home will not be deemed a total loss. Please, if you can, chip in and help out the Sims family get through the next few months.
