Needham, MA – Friends are helping a Needham family get back on their feet after a 3-alarm family heavily damaged their home.

At 4:12 a.m., firefighters in Needham responded to the blaze at 11 Allindale Rd. Firefighters say that they were able to get all the occupants of the house out of safely and it was a family dog that notified the home's residents of the fire.

Due to the impact of the fire, the family has been displaced. Only hours after the fire, friends of the Gage family have created a GoFundMe page to help the Gages during this difficult time.

"This is going to be a very hard time for the family and any donations that you can provide will help them through this process financially and emotionally," page creator David Perrone wrote.

Originally with a goal of $10,000, the campaign has well exceeded that and now has a goal of $20,000. As of late Tuesday night, $17,853 has been raised.

After the fire, the family was assisted by Needham Health Department, American Red Cross, and the Marriott Residence Inn in Needham, according to the Needham Fire Department.
