Tia Fire Recovery Fund
Donation protected
On the evening of February 15th, the unimaginable happened to our friend Tia when her apartment building caught fire. The entire 3 floor building was engulfed in flames quickly, and everything was lost. Including, devastatingly, her pup Hayden, who was her best friend and baby.
Now, along with grieving this terrible loss, she has to find a new home, and replace even the most basic of items. A long, slow, and debilitatingly expensive process for anyone, but especially a hospitality professional who must also work while trying to get everything figured out.
Tia is the first person to donate to someone in need, buy lunch for a friend who is blue, surprise coworkers with coffee and snack, or slyly pay a bar tab for friends. She never asks or expects anything in return, and now its our turn to show her the army of love she has built is now behind her.
So, lets do it. Lets get this lovely human back into a home she can call her own and help her start the process of rebuilding her life.
