Overbrook Gardens Fire Assistance

Tax deductible
On Monday  (12/9/2018) nine Families Forward Philadelphia (aka-Travelers Aid Society of Philadelphia) households experienced total loss of their apartments and all of their possessions in a devastating fire that occurred in their apartment building in the Overbrook section of Philadelphia.  https://6abc.com/massive-5-alarm-fire-under-control-in-overbrook-50-evacuated/4870746/

Since Monday, Families Forward Philadelphia,  has worked to help each of the nine households to secure short term housing.  All  participants are safe, but ALL are in need. 

Families Forward Philadelphia requests assistance with each of the nine households.  Your donations will go directly to each participant in order to help them buy toiletries, clothes, and other basic household items.  It will also help with setting up their next apartment with furniture and a bed.  Finally your donation will help with the process to secure their next apartment.
