Urgent Assistance Needed for Family Displaced by Devastating
Donation protected
Hello,
My name is Raymond Medeiros;
am presenting this opportunity to help the Robson family who are long-time friends of mine. We are reaching out on behalf of a local family who has experienced a devastating loss. In the early hours of a recent morning, a devastating fire engulfed the home of a beloved local family. Miraculously, all members escaped with only minor smoke inhalation injuries. However, they faced the blaze in their pajamas, with no time to salvage wallets, clothes, shoes, or any personal belongings. Their home and all its contents have been lost to the flames, leaving them without the essentials we often take for granted. While their insurance company has provided temporary shelter in a hotel and a small financial stopgap, the road to recovery and rebuilding their lives is steep and fraught with challenges. We are reaching out to our compassionate community on GoFundMe to support them in this critical time of need.
