Colpetzer Family lost their home to a fire
Donation protected
Last night My best friend Denika, her boyfriend Mitchell, and their two babies (Myla 4 and Liam 2), their upstairs neighbor (Tashoi), and downstairs neighbors (Tory and Alex) lost everything they had in a fire. Denika has been a stay at home mom since she became a mother, and Mitch works a full-time job. Everything, and I mean everything, was lost in the fire! Denika and Mitch grabbed only their children and ran out of the door without so much as shoes on their feet. They ran to make sure the other tenants got out as well and then could do nothing but watch. The most important things at this time are their essential everyday needs. Mitch's cell phone was also lost. A family of four is hard to put in 1 room, so there is also the need for shelter, adding more cost until a permanent arrangement can be found. The kids lost all their toys, and sweet Myla has been asking if her "stuffy got fired?" They need literally everything from food, diapers, wipes, clothes, to fingernail clippers, towels, toothbrushes, ect.
When I told Denika I was making this, she specifically said to not forget her neighbors who have also lost everything. Including phones, clothes, food, hygiene products, ect.
Their sizes are as follows:
Mitch - size large, pants large shirt, size 11 shoe
Denika -size med top, medium bottom, size 7.5 shoe
Myla -size 5-6 clothes, size 11 shoe, size 5T pull-ups
Liam- size 2T, size 6 shoe, size 4 diapers
Tashoi- size medium top, size medium bottom, size 9 shoe
Alex- size Large
Tory- size medium top and bottom
Understandably, money is tight for everyone right now. No help or contribution is too small! I have seen what this community can do when we work together. Their family, Toshoi, Alex, and Tory all need that kind of support right now. Anything is so very appreciated!
