thetruthaboutheaven21 Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Last night my friends house burnt down completely. All her clothes, records, books and all her other belongings didn't make it. I set up a indiegogo page for anyone that would like to donate to help her out. Any amount helps obviously.

I'm trying to spread this link around like a disease. She literally needs new everything and I'm hoping this at least helps with new clothes and a new bed.

lemongoat Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 When I was 10 my house burned down. Getting donations really helped us accelerate the process of getting back to normal. I chipped in $10, hope you can meet your goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

horrorbusiness138 Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Ouch, that is rough. I had an apartment that I lived in burn down years ago. Thankfully I didn't lose everything, but it sure is rough. Did she have house/renters insurance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe that she pays some of her rent and her mom pays the rest. She lives on her own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thetruthaboutheaven21 Posted July 31, 2014 Author Share Posted July 31, 2014 I would hope she has some kind of insurance. She was really upset last night so I don't think she does unfortunately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea, either way, even if she does it will still take a bit for that check to come and the extra $$ always helps. I'm broke at the moment, but I'll try to throw something her way when I have some funds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Youinreverse Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Does your friend live in Illinois? Right after I read through thread I got a message from someone I bought a record from on Ebay. "I recently experienced a terrible thing and my house burned down, so I need to go through the records that made it and see what shape they're in before I ship out. Please bear with me in this tedious time and I'll be in touch shortly. I apologize for the inconvenience." Kind of a strange coincidence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok, now that is a weird coincidence for me as I've seen Buffalo, NY for the third time on VC today AND I just got off the phone with someone from there. Either way I hope she can salvage as much stuff as possible from this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
