On the morning of October 2, tragedy struck as my sister, brother-in-law, and nieces lost their entire home to a devastating fire on Woolson Street. In the wake of this devastating incident, any support you can offer is immensely appreciated.

The situation is still unfolding, and we will keep everyone informed of any developments. Our immediate priority is to secure safe housing for them tonight so that my nieces can resume their normal routine and attend school.

Early on Monday morning, a fierce fire engulfed a triple-family home in the process of renovation, located in the Mattapan section of Boston. Video footage released by the Boston Fire Department depicted the extensive damage suffered by the Woolson Street residence, with flames raging on the upper floor. The fire had also consumed the back porches and spread across the roof.
