Thank you so much, Community. You are incredibly giving and thoughtful. Your offers and kindness are astronomical.
Right now, everything is fresh and the family is processing. The known needs are clothing items and monetary donations. It is a huge help to the family. Other needs will come later. Thank you again for your generosity.

Tonight we responded to a house fire where thankfully, a family and pets escaped, seemingly unharmed.
Community, we need you to do what you do best! Let’s come together and get Christmas to this family!
We are seeking Christmas gifts and monetary donations for this family: a 3 year old boy, a 16 year old boy, a mom, a dad and two cats.
The fire hall will be open for cash and Christmas present donations on December 24th, 1-2pm.
Etransfers can be sent to Michelle Greek at [email protected] and they will go to the family when the Christmas gifts are delivered on the afternoon of Christmas Eve.
As for donations of clothing and other items, that is unknown at this time. Please comment below if you know a bit about this family (likes, interests, hobbies).
