As I recently posted, my wife's brother Matt was murdered Tuesday. His estranged wife and her new boyfriend have been arrested for the crime. They're going away for a long, long time.
Matt had two children, ages three and four. These kids are now effectively orphans. My mother- and father-in law have stepped up to the plate to raise these children.
They need help. Between the costs of the funeral and the expenses associated with small children, they are broke. The kids need clothing and toys. My in-laws' home is small, and a new room needs built to accommodate the kids, who are currently sleeping on couches. My father-in-law is a contractor and can provide the labor, but materials still have a cost.
If any of you have cash to spare, my family and I would greatly appreciate any donation you can provide. Every dollar will help.
As of this time, we have raised nearly $7,000 dollars for these children. This is truly the Shack's shining moment, as the vast majority of those donations stem last Evening Reading. News is spreading, however! More people outside the Shack are hopping on board the Generosity Train! If you want your Shack Connection known to me, put it in the notes with your donation!
All relevant information along with news reports can be found on this simple blog I set up.

Physical Donations: I will be purchasing a PO Box for physical donations once the Post Office reopens on Monday. Once I get the address I will post for you guys. However, cash is probably more useful to avoid repeats!
Thank you.
