Imagine waking up in the middle of the night and your house is on fire. This happened to Setzer family during spring break. Fortunately, all of the family escaped the fire and even their 4 dogs, 3 cats and 1 giant tortoise got out quickly and safely.
Their daughters are students at Bay Meadows Elementary School (fourth grade) and Southwest Middle School (sixth grade). Fortunately, thanks to the amazing firefighters, the girls' bedrooms and some of their living areas were spared major damage. But a good portion of the house was destroyed, and it is unlivable.
The family will be in temporary housing for the next 8 to 12 months while repairs are made to their home. Even though insurance will cover the major costs, they are dealing with a lot. Help is needed to purchase daily living supplies and food.
The Bay Meadows Koala and Southwest Middle Sea Lion families care about all their kids and believe in helping those in need. Please consider making a gift to help the Setzer family.
Gifts can be made using the form below. If you prefer to give by check, please make it payable to "Foundation for OCPS," and write "Setzer Family Fund" in the memo section. It can be mailed to:
The Foundation for OCPS
445 West Amelia Street
Orlando, FL 32801
On behalf of the Setzer family, thank you for your thoughts, prayers and generosity.
Please Note:
Since all contributions will be distributed to the family, gifts are not considered tax deductible. They will, however, mean a great deal to the Setzer family.
