Unfortunately, this tragedy struck close to home:

The Campbell Family is in need of your help. Patrick and Danielle are the proud parents of three young children. Patrick is a member of the New York Air National Guard and a veteran of Operation Iraqi Freedom. Additionally Patrick volunteers as firefighter for his local town and the county's hazardous materials team. He does all this in his time off from his full time duties as a firefighter fort the Department of Veterans Affairs. Patrick and his family have devoted their lives to serving the community in which they live as well as the State of New York and The United States Military.

On December 29, 2014 the Campbell Family suffered devastating losses after a fast moving fire quickly consumed their home. The fire left them with little of their personal possessions. We are attempting to raise money to help them get back on their feet. This family has done so much for us, now its time to return the favor. Please give what you can and share this with your friends to show the Campbell family how much they mean to us.
