Home Fires Update
Heartstep has recently had 2 nominations from different families going through the struggle of rebuilding after house fires wiped out all their possessions.
The family in Greenville, Paul, Anne, and Drew lost their home while trying to clean up debris from a recent storm. The family has temporary residence and is looking for a new home presently. In the meantime, Atlanta Bread Company has provided some meals and food for the family. We have also been collecting clothing and household items from the community. We are still looking for more donations to help this sweet family get back on their feet.
Another family from Pauline, SC lost most of their possessions in a house fire as well. Mike, Freda and Aaron have had some support from the Red Cross and their local church. Our project coordinators have assessed the families needs include: bedroom linens, blankets, chest of drawers, curtains, cups and mugs. Canned or non-perishable foods would be helpful. They also need clothing for the three of them. Women’s sizes: dress 12, jeans 14, t-shirt XL, shoe 7 1/2, bra 38B, underwear 6-7. Men’s sizes: jeans 29 x32 or 32 x 34, t-shirts M or L, shoes 7 1/2 W or 11W. We’ve had several leads in the community for help on this project and we’d like to thank those people in advance.
If you can help with either situation please contact Heartstep via our website and Heartstep.org!
