Community Rallies for Families Displaced by Centerport Condo Blaze

A local organization is collecting donations for the families who lost everything in the Tuesday morning fire.

The Harborfields community is rallying to support the families who lost their homes in a relentless blaze that caused a Centerport condo complex to collapse Tuesday morning.

It took firefighters from 10 different departments several hours to extinguish the blaze. No one was injured, but many have lost everything in the fire.

In response, the Harborfields Alliance For Community Outreach (HACO) is collecting money and gift card donations to support the families in need.
