Fire on Esplanade - MG

This past Thursday, 2/14/19 Mark Grapes' apartment in the Esplanade building caught on fire. Thankfully Mark was not home at the time but his beloved dog Brees was in the apartment and sustained life threatening injury. Brees had to be hospitalized and will be under a vet's care until further notice. Mark is displaced until his apartment can be deemed livable again. The LA fire marshal has ruled a faulty cellphone charger to be the cause of this terrible accident. We are raising funds to help Mark shoulder the burden of the over $2000 medical bills for Brees as well as to replace most of his personal belongings. Thank you for reading Mark's story and for contributing what you can.
