Family Needs Help After Fire

DNJ Reporter Mealand Ragland-Hudgins sent this:

This is information about what the Walker family needs after losing their home Sunday. Wendy is a a friend of the family and got the info for me . Her number is 216-7510, e-mail is sanctuary@untiltherapture.com

Ricky (father) needs...
shirts- XL
jeans- 34/36 waist 30 length
shoes- 9 1/2
He needs steel toe work boots before he can return to work (donation pending).

Dawn (mother) needs...
shirts- Large
pants- 12
shoes- 8 1/2 or 9

Nicci (16 year old daughter) needs...
pants- 3
shirts- small or medium
shoes- 6

John Charles (14 year old son) needs...
jeans- 32 waist 32 length
shirts- medium or large
shoes- 11

The kids shirts for school must be plain. No logos or wordage. Someone is taking care of personal clothing (underwear). They would like a microwave, hair dryer, hair brush, toiletries, food, small fridge, anything you need daily to function is needed.

The family is in a hotel in Murfreesboro. They are going to have to rent a place as insurance is NOT taking care of that for them. They found a place in La Vergne for $600.00 a month. They need the deposit, first and last months rent to get in. Plus deposits on utilities. The Red Cross give them $545 for food and clothes. If they get enough food and clothes in donation then they can use that towards the house. ANYTHING will help!
