|
|
I got a call from a friend this morning about 2am. He and his family lost there house do to a fire. They lost everything even his cars. By the time I got over there the house was nothing, but ashes. Everything they owned is now gone all they have left is the clothes that they had on at the time that the fire started. I'm going to let them stay with me untill they get back on there feet again. I don't know how to go about this as I hate to ask anybody for anything. They were like many families that are out there living from paycheck to paycheck. I have been up all night tring to figure out how to help them out as they have no clothes or any money to get any as it was all lost in the fire. This is hard for me to do, but Theville is as close of a family as I have. If any of you could help out with a little donation it would be much appreciated. The main thing is to get the girls some clothes so they can go to school. Sorry I had to ask this everyone, but I didn't know what else to do. If you can help in any way I would appreciate it very much so.
You cam PM me for any info. or email me at Simpleman33@gmail.com
Thanx in advance to anyone that can help. _________________ <eVa>Simpleman-V$=<RIP> |

Simpleman, I would also suggest the family seek the assistance from your City, the Red Cross, etc.
Also, see if you can get a story written in the local paper about how a family has lost everything, there are many generous people out there that will help families in need.

Yeah paypal account is simpleman33@gmail.com
Yeah as soon as all these places are open we are going to call or go down there. I put a add in the paper as well, but it won't run untill tomorrow.
The thing that really sucks is that they just started getting there lives straightened out. They have had a lot of hard times do to job layoffs, because the plant they worked at closed down and put alot of people out of work . So finding another job was hard to come by, because there were so many laid off. He just finally got work and started to get things going and this happens. _________________ <eVa>Simpleman-V$=<RIP> |

Nope
Not sure if the homeowner that they were renting from did, but most of the time the renter is not covered. They were living from paycheck to paycheck so I don't think they had the extra money to get renters insurance. _________________ <eVa>Simpleman-V$=<RIP> |

Well we went to the red cross today and they gave them a couple bags of food. They have to check back once a day to see if there are any clothes. Those that have helped out they were in shock. They thought that, that was the most amazing thing that has ever been done fore them. John's wife is in the process of writing a thank you letter to you all. We have a couple more places to check out to see if we can get them a few things. I'm letting them take a nap as they need and so do I. I haven't went to bed yet so i'm getting a little tired. _________________ <eVa>Simpleman-V$=<RIP> |
