BRIDGEPORT, PA — Three GoFundMe campaigns have been launched for the families who were displaced by the recent destructive fires in Bridgeport.

Hundreds of donations have poured in for the two fundraisers, which can be found here, here and here. Between the three campaigns, more than $13,000 has been raised.

All three families lost everything in their homes in the blaze.

The incident occurred just before 3 a.m. Sunday morning on the 500 block of Grove Street.
It's not yet clear what caused the fire, and it remains under investigation.

When firefighters arrived, some of the victims were trapped on the roof of the home, officials said. One woman had leapt from the roof to the ground to safety and was injured in the fall, NBC Philadelphia reports.

That woman and two others were transported to the hospital.

The fire was brought under control in less than two hours, officials said. However, two homes were destroyed.
