Emerge Member Seeking Help for Local Family

Cauney Bamberg's brother-in-law is the pastor of a local church and a recent fire has caused a family to be displaced with very limited resources. The following information is from the pastor's wife:

We have a family in our church that had a fire in there apartment complex over the weekend. The had a lot of smoke damage and lost all of their clothes and etcetera. They do not have renters insurance. If anyone has or know of children that would donate clothes here are their sizes
Cody - 16 yr old boy 29/32 (thin & tall)
Jake - 16 yr old boy 28/30
Becky - 12 yr old girl - girls sizes 10/12
Ashley - 6 yr old girl 6x

They could also use towels (bath as well as kitchen). Just think of anything fabric you use on a daily basis and that is what was lost.
We have made the need know also in our church, but as you know it is a small church and I thought if I could network as many as possible we could get them more assistance.
Even if you are unable to donate items - please more than anything keep them in your prayers. If you have never experienced a fire in your home, it is extremely devastating......

If anyone has anything they are able to donate to please contact Cauney Bamberg on her cell at (863) 944-4574.
