CONCORD, NH — Nine people were left homeless after a building fire was reported inside a three-family house on Hall Street in Concord on Thursday.

Meaghan Prescott, the mother of one of those tenants, has set up a $5,000 GoFundMe.com fundraising effort to assist her daughter, Camryn Prescott, and two children, 5 and 2, who lost everything.

“All she took was her car keys and kids and ran outside,” she said. “My grandchildren lost all of their clothes and toys, not to mention everything else. Trying to get her enough money to start over as quick as possible. Anything helps. Thanks!”
