One of our newly arrived refugee client families need extra support after a two-alarm fire forced them to evacuate their home this past weekend. After an arduous journey that brought them to Western New York, community support will help them through this recent setback.
The following items are urgently needed to help this family back on their feet:
- One Stroller
- Cookware: pots and pans
- Enrichment items including toys, educational materials, and screen devices safe for children.
If you can help, please contact donations@iibuff.org
It happened early Sunday morning on Buffalo’s West Side when a house fire next door spread to their home, rendering it inhabitable with an estimated $70,000 in damages. The five-member family arrived from Colombia and includes three children ages two to fourteen, including one with special needs. Unfortunately, they lost all of their belongings in the fire.
