ATTENTION: Today I reach out to you, my wonderful fans here at Extremecouponingmom asking for your help to help a family who has lost their whole world this holiday season! As many of you may know (or may not) I was born and raised in Hamilton, Ontario and have a big spot in my heart for my fellow Hamiltonians though I have moved away. It is with the saddest of hearts I write this today as a family has lost not only their home, all of their worldly possessions, their two beloved dogs in a fire but also their amazing mother and wife. I happen to be great friends of many family members of this wonderful woman -- Hamilton isnt that big we tend to know someone who knows someone! On Saturday December 20th a fire changed this family forever their mother lost her life alongside their two family pets and this family is left heartbroken and with only the clothes on their backs. I personally am donating to this family through the items in my stockpile as well as collecting donations of gently used clothing and more here in Richmond Hill which will be given to the family shortly. I am reaching out to anyone in the Hamilton area who can donate non-perishable food items, gently used clothing etc to this family. The father is 510 and wears a size medium in clothing and size 10 shoes The daughter is 21 and 56 wearing a size medium in clothing and size 8 shoes The son is 19 and 510 wearing a size medium in clothing and size 10 shoes The second son is 15 and 510 wearing a size medium in clothing and size 10 shoes. Family friends have also set up a GoFundMe account for this family that has raised over $500 in 13 hours so if you are not local and would like to help any amount $5, $10 whatever you can spare to help this family out would be overly appreciated!
