Last evening, a member of one of our neighboring mutual aid fire companies experienced a devastating house fire, leaving her and her three daughters displaced from their home.

For those of us in the fire service, the word family extends far beyond the walls of our own firehouse. We train together, respond to emergencies together, support one another, and build friendships that reach well beyond the calls we answer.

Today, one of our own needs that same support.

Our hearts are with this family as they navigate the difficult days ahead. While no one can replace what has been lost, we can come together to remind this family that they are not facing this alone.

The community has already begun rallying around them, and we would like to help extend that circle of support.

❤️ Ways You Can Help:

🔹 GoFundMe: A fundraiser has been established to help the family during this difficult time. https://www.gofundme.com/f/coming-together-for-ashley-after-the-fire?attribution_id=sl:3902ece3-9540-408d-b95f-5d539bcc95f0&lang=en_US&ts=1794121936&utm_campaign=fp_sharesheet&utm_content=amp30-control&utm_medium=customer&utm_source=copy_link (opens in a new tab)

🔹 Clothing Donations: Donations are being accepted at Upperco Fire Department https://www.gofundme.com/f/coming-together-for-ashley-after-the-fire?attribution_id=sl:3902ece3-9540-408d-b95f-5d539bcc95f0&lang=en_US&ts=1794121936&utm_campaign=fp_sharesheet&utm_content=amp30-control&utm_medium=customer&utm_source=copy_link (opens in a new tab)

Whether you are able to donate, share this post, or simply keep this family in your thoughts and prayers, every act of kindness matters.

We spend our lives answering the call for others. Today, let's answer the call for one of our own.

With love and support from your Reese Volunteer Fire Company family. ❤️
