Family friend loses house and father in fire
I hope this email finds you well. Forgive me for getting this message through more than one platform. I am calling on my social network to help me with a cause close to my heart.
My daughters best friend lost his father and his house last night to a fire in Pearland, TX. His mother had already left the family when he was an infant so he has no parents. He is a great, hard working kid and I am so sorry for his loss. Danielle has already collected $150 from my son’s daycare just by telling the story this afternoon. We have received a few restaurant gift cards as well. Danielle has even started talking to neighbors to see if anyone can help. I am so proud of her.
Randy, who is 16, his grandmother, and brother now have nothing. His grandmother is elderly and handicapped and Randy is her primary care giver.
I am trying to collect money for the family so they can buy much needed items like clothes, bedding, groceries, school supplies and other necessities. They are staying with a family member for the time being and have shelter.
