How To Help A West Chester Family That Lost Everything In Fire

WEST CHESTER, PA -- On August 19, flames ripped through the Bartkowski home in West Chester, leaving wreckage and rubble behind.

Fortunately the family and their dogs were able to escape, but pet snakes, guitars, a drum set, and the rest of their valuables were destroyed.

While the family expects insurance money, "they need to start from scratch," said Conor Green, a friend of the family who started the fundraiser.

"No clothes, shoes, beds, furniture," he wrote.

The community has already donated $1,755 through 25 donations over the past month, as of Thursday.
