Help this family regain life destroyed by fire
Donation protected
Dearest family and friends,
I am with no words how I feel about my friend and his family while they were vacationing in a joyful going-to-be weekend in Disneyland. What should have been a long fourth of July getaway turned into a nightmare for them. And unfortunately, their cheerful moment cut were short when they found out their house was on fire.
My name is Outhaya and I am organizing this fundraising to help our friend Jay Vang, his wife Phoua, and their 3 beautiful kids who lost everything in their home to the tragic fire on Saturday, July 2nd in Olivehurst, CA.
On approximately 4:00 pm on Saturday late afternoon, my wife received a phone call from our friend saying that there was a fire around their neighborhood. Given the fact that they have received notifications and alerts, and worried that they may be affected, they asked us to go check it out.
Sadly, nothing can describe the horrific scene we witnessed. We broke the news to our friend over Facetime that it was indeed their home. The emotions on the video call was heartbreaking and silenced. Immediately, they left Disneyland in hope that there will be a light at the end.
